A while ago, I heard that either CDC or Hitachi is coming out with a 2 GB SMD/IPI class disk and just wondering if anyone has heard/investigated this up to now. The Ciprico (?) controller for the 1.2 GB Sabre drive (Sun calls it 7053 ? or SMD-4) -- can one mix drives on this controller ? (e.g. mixing 2 Sabre's with two 892 MB Hitachi DK-815's). I heard that using Sun's own controller (7053?) one cannot mix drives but I'm not sure about this. Any pointers would be much appreciated. Eric Ho Princeton University eho@clarity.princeton.edu
