I'm replying here by net-news rather than email since the question has come up before & answers may be of general interest to the group. I have the Pacific Peripherals OverDrive controller, and have had it for about 2 months now. I am using it with a Seagate ST157N drive (48 Meg SCSI). It has worked perfectly and so far I have been delighted with it. Having not seen any other controller &/or drive in action, I can't say how it compares with other setups, although I have had none of the problems that other people have been reporting with the 2090 controller. My only complaint is that it does not autoboot; but I think that autobooting is not supported at all under V1.2 of AmigaDos (correct me if I'm wrong); I do not know if the hardware will allow autobooting once the OS is changed to support it. -- Mark Lanzo -- (borrowing a friend's account) Disclaimer: I have no connection with Pacific Peripherals other than as a (so far) satisfied customer. operating system; I do not know if the It has performed flawlessly

Sushi is officially dead as of April 15th (ack! that's TODAY!), so any attempts to ftp stuff from sushi will probably fail... But the BKDC stuff is on plenty of other machines (and Fish disks too), so this shouldn't be a problem to anyone. Ali Ozer, ali@polya.stanford.edu
