From: JOEL ROBERTSON/EE/ROBINS TAC <ROBERTSON@RADC-TOPS20.ARPA> HAS ANYONE SUCESSFULLY USED THE JADE DOUBLE-D DISK CONTROLER WITH 5 1/4 INCH DRIVES ? IF SO I COULD USE SOME HINTS ON HOW TO ACCOMPLISH THIS FEAT. I AM ALSO INTERESTED IN AN 8 INCH BIOS OTHER THAN THE ONE SUPPLIED BY JADE. JOEL ROBERTSON <ROBERTSON@RADC-TOPS20> -------

#R:sri-arpa:-1437600:hp-kirk:17700002:000:351 hp-kirk!craig Dec 9 07:29:00 1983 I use the Jade Double D with 8" drives and like it. No experience with 5 1/4" drives. Just curious, why do you need another BIOS? Jade gives some of the best commented code out with the board. I've adapted mine to 4 different system configurations as my system has changed over the years with no problems. Craig Durland hp-labs!hp-pcd!craig
