I just received a brochure from DEC describing briefly the HSC50 intelligent disk/tape server. I wonder if anyone on the net can comment on this unit, in particular 1) Has amyone written (or thought about writing) a driver for it? 2) What performance enhancements (or other benefits) might be gained from it on a VAX-11/780, with an RA-81 disk, running UNIX? Please reply by mail. If anything interesting comes back I will post it to this newsgroup. Thanks in advance. John Montgomery ihnp4!houxd!johnm
