I am working on getting the parts for a home brew drive. I would be interested to know why people on this net are shying away from the Tulin A-Hive case that was talked about in A+ (May '89). Does anyone know of anu other devices like it? I have noticed one other company, True Data Products (on page 572 in this month's computer shopper), but I know nothing of them and their prices are still in the $119 range (although it comes with a SCSI cable. Finally, how do you daisy chain off of a HomeBrew drive? The article in A+ showed a direct line between one connector and the drive engine. How does the second connector fit in to allow daisy chaining, especially considering most cases have room for 2 or more devices? jeremy mereness ============= "A car in every pot; a chicken in every garage" jm7e+@andrew.cmu.edu (Arpanet) r746jm7e@CMCCVB (vax....

Finally, I want to know if a SCSI hard drive engine terminates the SCSI chain. If not, how do you split the SCSI cable so that a homebrew drive can be chained to? How do "REAL" external drives allow chaining? any SCSI hackers out there? jeremy mereness ============= "A car in every pot; a chicken in every garage" jm7e+@andrew.cmu.edu (Arpanet) r746jm7e@CMCCVB (vax....
