My biggest problem is that I don't know if the controller cards in the commercial Atari Hard Drives are vastly different from the standard, say IBM compatible contollers, and if so what the major differences are. I would very much appreciate any feedback that you can offer. If possible please mail me the information. I will attempt to post my final findings and hopefully, solution. Thanx, Jeff -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Jeff Correll UUCP: rochester!ritcv!ritcsh!jeffois Computer Science House Rochester Institute of Technology BITNET: JAC8396@RITVAX
