Thanks for all the help of this group in teaching me about interleaving. I hope you can all be as helpful on this one. Seagate has just put out a 40M 28ms drive entitled the 251A. It is supposed to be spiffier than the 251. Does anyone know anything about the 251 running in a 6300? Second, my dealer tells me I need a new controller (a Western Digital WX). I have a DTC controller from my current ST225 (no model number on the controller that I can discern, but it is dated late 1985). Can I use the DTC controller with the 251A and save about $100. Is the DTC controller in any way inferior to the WD controller. Thanks in advance Neal Beck ARPA: beck@sdcsvax.uscd.edu BITNET: beck@ucsd VOICE: (619)534 3548
