Pearson) Distribution: usa Organization: University of Virginia, Charlottesville Lines: 10 I am planning the purchase of a large (150 - 300 Meg) ESDI drive and controller for my Xenix system. I have seen several praises for the WD1007 ESDI controller, but a state purchase contract makes it much easier for me to buy an Adaptec 2322B controller/Maxtor XT4380E combination. I would appreciate any comments/warnings about this controller and drive, especially compared with a WD1007/CDC alternative. Bill Pearson
