[comp.sys.next] DAT and external 2.88MB floppies

phd_ivo@gsbacd.uchicago.edu (10/11/90)

*************
 
I intend to add both a DAT and an external 2.88MB floppy to my old-but-to-
be-upgraded cube.

	(1) Has anyone already hooked up a DAT? How much do they cost?
	Which vendor should I approach?

	(2) If I believe NeXT's documentation, an ext 2.88MB floppy for
	the old NeXT costs $500. Who is selling these, and can they read/write
	Mac disks (no, not IBM-compatible disks that read in Apple
	superdrives)?

	(3) Does either of the above come with a NeXTStep interface? Or, at
	least an intelligent, easy-to-handle utility?

Any information appreciated.
