We're suffering under a serious problem: as soon we get a bigger disk, we fill it up and need more diskspace... This takes no end, and that's a REAL problem. ;-) We're now a the point where we need to install a second controller to fulfill our needs ;-)). We have another two 70 MB hd's lying around here with ST506 interface waiting to be filled up ;-) SCO 2.3.1 now supports a second controller (as mentioned in the release notes). Is there anyone out there using a second hd-controller under SCO2.3.1 who can give us some hints regarding the type of controller, IO-base address, irq-vector ( 15 ? ) and so on ?
