A question to person's with extensive knowledge of SGI hardware. Has anyone out there installed a CDC 9720 1.23GB Disk on a SGI 4D/50. I am looking into the pos. of doing this. However, I would like to hear from persons having done this as to the ease with which it was accomplished. What were the problems encountered ? Were there any incompatibility problems between the CDC disk and the SMD Controller board ?? ( I am aware that I need to upgrade controller Board on 4D/50 first) SGI has such an option avail. ( P4-D120D) I would like to know what percentage of the CDC DISK'S are rejected when they (SGI) do this option. Thanks . Any and all responses will be appreciated. ********************************************************** * L'homme se decouvre quand il se mesure avec l'obstacle * * A.
