From: Peter Milne <PWM@Su-Ai> Has anyone tried putting a largish (say >60Mbyte) SMD winchester onto a Wicat 150? If so whose controller did you use, and how did it work out? Although the 150's I/O board uses the Signetics 2651 UART which is capable of doing synchronous I/O, it is not clear to me that the 150 implements it. Has anyone got synchronous I/O going on a 150 either by modifying the I/O board or using someones synch Multibus I/O board? Interested in peoples impressions of Wicat systems in general and in the 150 in particular. I believe that a rack mounted 150 system will be available shortly. -- Peter
