The company I work for is installing a Novell Network. They purchased a 33 MHz Northgate 386 with two 300 MB CDC SCSI disk drives. The problem is the company that will install the network for us does not wish to use the CDC drives, claiming that they aren't Novell certified, and they want to sell us their drives (drives they sell, not produce). My questions are: 1) Has anyone used CDC drives or had any experience with them and if so what is your opinion of them? 2) If you have solid reasoning for your opinion, is there a specific manufacture of drive that we should be using on our network? 3) Do you have any other comments regarding Novell networks, Northgate computers as file servers, or SCSI hard disks? If you have any questions, please E-Mail me. Thank You, Andy |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| | | | Andrew Gross ARPA: alg106@psuvm.psu.edu | | Pennsylvania State University BITNET: ALG106@PSUVM | | | | "It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it." | | - Steven Wright | | | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
