Message-ID: <270@qtc.UUCP> Date: Tue, 24-Mar-87 16:55:27 EST Article-I.D.: qtc.270 Posted: Tue Mar 24 16:55:27 1987 Date-Received: Fri, 27-Mar-87 04:23:02 EST Organization: Quantitative Technology Corp., Beaverton, OR Lines: 18 Does anybody know of or heard of a reasonable removable hard disk sub-system for the PC. Reasonable by price/speed/cost of media/availablity of media. I know cost is all relative :-) Anyway, this is what I want to do. I think I have almost every popular version of Unix and some not so. MicroPort, Xenix 1.0, Venix, and soon SCO Xenix... I'ld like to build the different OS's, to include MS-DOS on removable disks (that's big enough) so I can switch at will (sort of). The ability to boot from such media would save alot of heartaches as well as saving the keyboard from "pounding" abuse. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ed Lisle | ogcvax! | | Quantitative Technology Corporation | verdix! qtc!ed | | Beaverton, OR (503) 626-3081 | sequent! | +------------------------------------------------------------+
