From what I read, the main issue preventing easy mix and match of SCSI disks is making sure that the driver uses the same command set as the controller. To this end the ANSI X3T9.2 Committee is considering a proposed standard called CCS (common command set). I have not gotten my December software supplement, so I as yet don't have any idea what is going on inside the Mac+. Does Apple supply a SCSI device driver, and if so what command set does it use? Is it CCS, homegrown, or perhaps the set command set used by a popular controller? If Apple is not supplying a device driver, do they at least publish some command guidelines that the third party SCSI suppliers are using? -- Ken Mandelberg Emory University Dept of Math and CS Atlanta, Ga 30322 {akgua,sb1,gatech,decvax}!emory!km USENET km@emory CSNET km.emory@csnet-relay ARPANET
