I just recently installed a Fujitsu M2263SA SCSI-2 disk drive on a NeXT and
was so impressed with the performance (cost and real) that I would like to
install one on my RS/6000-520.  Has anyone already done this and could offer
me some pointers.

Such as:
  Is IBM's SCSI controller SCSI-2 compatible.  Can it handle sync xfers?
  Has anyone built a disktab for it?
  How should I jumper the drive?

BTW this drive is 672MB formatted, 16ms, 4.0MB/s xfer, and ~$1,500.

Thanks for any help,
