Curie, Paris, FRANCE Lines: 14 Hello HP gurus ! I am considering buying an HP9000/319 with a 300 Mbyte 7959 disc drive. The question is : should it use HP-IB high-speed disc interface (opt 010) or SCSI interface (opt 011) ? Do you have any experience especially in terms of disc transfer speed and non HP peripheral connection such as QIC 24 tape drive ? Thanks in advance, Pierre David ...!uunet!mcvax!inria!litp!pda
