The October 23 issue of PC Week, p. 9, has an article entitled "New Disk Controllers To Provide Interface Support for EISA PCs". It discusses something called the Enhanced AT Attachment (EATA) interface, which is an extension to the de facto WD1003 standard for disk controllers. "EATA was defined in September by a group of about 100 computer peripherals manufacturers, including Maxtor Corp., Seagate Technology Inc., Quantum Corp., Adaptec Inc., Western Digital Corp. and Distributed Processing Technology." Does anyone know where to get information about this standard, other than just writing blindly to one of the above companies? And is the Mylex 32-bit SCSI board, which looks like a WD1003 to the host, an implementation of EATA? -- A. Lester Buck ...!texbell!moray!siswat!buck
