[comp.periphs] Hard disk/controller question

drich@dialogic.dialogic.com (Dan Rich) (03/23/90)

Once again (still?) I am researching hard disks/controllers.  This
time I am trying to find out info about compatability.  Does anyone
have any experience with various manufacturers of disks and
controllers?  I am trying to determine if all controllers of a given
type (ie, SCSI, EDSI, ST506) will work with all drives of the same
type.  Yes, I know that these are supposed to be "standards", but I
have had several bad experiences with "standards" in the past.

Please E-mail your responses.  We don't receive at least one of the
groups I am posting this to.  If there is an interest, I will post a
summary when the responses trickle down.
