Summary: Universal Disk Controller Fits in //gs...


When this discussion about 3.5 inch drives got started several people
recommended the Universal Disk controller card and the 3.5's from Central
Point Software.  Somewhere along the line someone said that the UDC did
not fit in the //gs case.  I tried this out and my UDC fits fine.  Has 
anyone else had problems?  Was there an older model of this card that
didn't fit?  My impression of the //gs case was that it was larger than
the //e case (no slope in front).  The only complaint I've heard is that
there is more room behind the card, between the back edge of the card and
the back of the case.  This evidently allows some small cards like parallel
printer cards to be inserted backwards, ie with the chips facing the power 
supply.  This could be a problem for new users.  Anyone had such a problem
or heard of one like this?
