[comp.sys.apple2] SCSI HD Driver

STEIN@UCONNVM.BITNET (Alan Stein) (12/05/90)

Is the driver for Apple's newer high speed, DMA SCSI card different from
the driver for the old SCSI card?  If so, how does one tell one driver from
the other?

I assume you're talking about the GS/OS driver.
Yes, the old (Rev C SCSI) driver does not work with the High-Speed SCSI Card.
However, the new driver (distributed with System Disk 5.0.3) does work with
both Apple SCSI interfaces.  For 5.0.2 you need to install the driver shipped
with the High-Speed SCSI Card i fyou're going to use that card under GS/OS.

Don't use the driver that came with your card if you are using System disk
5.03. Use your Installer and use the driver that comes with system tools 5.03.
If you don't have system disk 5.03 disreguerd the above.
