Many of you try to connect 3:rd party disks to the RT, many seems to
have trouble.
There seems to be a rumor seeping out that there is a PD SCSI driver available,
and, in fact the rumor is true. We started using RT's for AFS file servers two
years ago. When our disk space ran out we didn't want to buy more IBM
9332's so we 
someone bought a pile of Maxtor XT4380S's for me. They just happened to be
single-ended SCSI and not diffrential as IBM's adapter was. Also,
someone bought
a SCSI streamer tape. The same week that Adaptec salesperson went by and .....

The driver can be ftp'd from wasp.ctp.se.ibm.com. Look in pub/ibm43/scsi.tar.Z.

The driver also contains that tape driver (at least useful for backing
up things)
If you use it, please let me know (via mail)

Chris.
