I am wondering whether I can adapt a cheap 10 + 10 drive originally intended for the IBM PC to work with my Mac. There are at least two approaches I can think of: does the Bernoulli box use a ST506 or similarly standard controller, that could be replaced by a SCSI/ST506 board? Alternatively, is there any product out there that will let a IBM bus device be plugged into a generic SCSI port? And finally, will one of the generic Mac disk formatters (i.e. "Formats and partitions any brand disk") out there work with the Bernoulli box, assuming that one of these hardware approaches works, or will I need a Mac Bernouilli Box driver, or will I need to write my own driver? -- --mike bergman Massachusetts Microelectronics Center 75 North Drive, Westborough, MA 01581, USA +1 (508) 870-0312 UUCP: (...harvard)!m2c!bergman INTERNET: bergman@m2c.org
