I have a SCSI card with my 20 meg apple hard drive. What improvements does rev. C of the scsi chip offer and is it worth the $100?

C on the Apple SCSI card is free. If your dealer is trying to charge you $100.00, I would seriously consider calling his district manager and complaining. Course, that's just me talking. Rick, Dave, et.al., what is your opinion?

-> I have a SCSI card with my 20 meg apple hard drive. What -> improvements -> does rev. C of the scsi chip offer and is it worth the -> $100? I believe that the difference is that the Rev. C can handle 60 megs. (I wouldn't count on that being the only difference...) While we are on the discussion of SCSI... Does anyone know if there is a way to trick ProDos 8 (any version) into accessing the extra 20 megs on a Seagate St277n that it can't get to? I can only get to 40 of the 60 megs and I would really like the extra Megs. -Jim -- Fidonet : 1:263/42 Jim Anderson | UUCP : ..psuvax1!psuhcx!hogbbs!jla | This Space Internet: jla@hogbbs.fidonet.org | For Rent or jla%hogbbs.fidonet.org@hcx.psu.edu |
