For people who have been following the Western Digital WD1007 comments:

	1) SCO has a fix available, SLS#xnx133 that corrects
	   "WD1007A hard drive access problems on Xenix 2.2.3 and 2.3"
	2) Yes, the controller works, does 1:1 interleave, and is fast. 
	   Compaq has been shipping that controller in their faster 386 
	   machines for over a year now.
