TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, U.S.A., 1990 JAN 29 (NB) -- Future Domain has announced its newest "Plug & Play" product, a disk driver for the Novell 386 operating system. The new Novell 386 driver (Version 1.0) is designed to work with 386 and 486 AT bus-based PCs. It supports Future Domain's TMC- 885 and TMC-860 SCSI (small computer system interface) products along with Novell's operating system 3.0 and follows all SCSI-I and SCSI-II command specifications. With one Version 1.0 driver, up to four SCSI host adapters can be installed in a file server supporting a maximum of 28 external disk drives. The Novell 386 operating system coupled with the Future Domain Version 1.0 driver and SCSI host adapters is said to allow the system to support almost unlimited mass storage--the figure mentioned by Future Domain is up to 32 terabytes (32 million megabytes). The new driver is priced at $249 and includes Future Domain's Disk Maestro set-up utility, installation guides and binder.
