Hoping to get a quick opinion or two: I own a Miniscribe 6053 that I use on my 8088 computer. I'm upgrading to a 386 machine and want to still use my hard drive. I'm looking for a controller that will give me RLL and a 1:1 interleave-- is there such a card? What is the manufacturer? Also, has anybody ever used a 6053 with a RLL controller? Problems? What was the resulting size of the drive? Email and I'll sumarize. Thanks--- Rick Dorris msprick@amdcad.UUCP

I paid about $150 for one (mailorder). Adaptec may have XT versions. -- Jon Zeeff Branch Technology, uunet!umix!b-tech!zeeff zeeff%b-tech.uucp@umix.cc.umich.edu
