[comp.periphs] Need info on SCSI peripherals.

bill@bcsfse.UUCP (Bill Sears) (03/04/88)

****
    I am looking for information from manufacturers, vendors, etc. dealing
with high capacity (>150 Mb) SCSI hard disk drives, and cartridge tape drives.
If anyone has information of this type, or if there are actually vendors or
manufacturers with network access, I would appreciate hearing from you.  I
am interested in product descriptions (things like transfer rates, seek times,
etc.), and price lists.
Thanks
Bill
