We are currently considering a project to internally distribute databases
using WORM type optical disks. The most likely configuration would be
an AT with 100-500 Mb of data. Our research has found several vendors,
all with some obvious shortcomings. Anyone out there have any additional
vendors, facts, rumors, or perhaps even some first hand experience. So far
we know ...
Information Storage Inc.(100 meg now ... 200 meg flippy in 3 months)
(currently only XT support)
Optotech Inc. (400 meg now ... (possibly a flippy also))
National Memory Systems (seems to "sell" Optotech equipt.)
(they said they shipped one to us three times but
they never have.. production problems they say)
(rumored reliability problems)
With sufficient response and interest I will summarize and post ...
Please send any info (via e-mail) to ..!mit-eddie!mck-csc!jfp
Thanx ....
