[comp.os.cpm] Compupro Disk 2

John_A_Pham@cup.portal.com (01/16/91)

Does anyone know anything about this board (Compupro Disk 2 cntrl)?  
I believe it is a hard disk controller to SA-4000 <?>.  Is SA-4000 compatible
with ST-506?

     The Disk 2 is a two board set.  If you don't have both boards,
you can't use it.

     CompuPro's Disk 2 is a SA-1000 ( ie. 8" ) HD interface.  Specs
basically read like those for the Disk 3, except for the interface
(DMA across 64k boundaries, intelligent controller, etc. )

     It's no longer supported, but CompuPro will still answer
questions about it.  The manual is still available from them, too.
Give tech. support a call.
