If you want to connect a drive to your ST, you'll better look for a way to convert ESDI/ST506/SMD/whatever to SCSI. I know of ESDI/SCSI and ST506/SCSI controllers, but I haven't heard anything about SMD. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Claus Brod, Am Felsenkeller 2, Things.
