A friend of mine is getting a 660MByte Micropolis ESDI harddrive for her 386-25Mhz computer. She is going to using it to store hires images captured by her video digitizer equipment, and use them in her research. I am helping her shop around for the Harddisk and acontroller and kind of decided to get a Micropolis full-height ESDI 660 Meg harddrive. The mail-order vender sells a kit with an Ultrastor ESDI controller. I thought of getting a Western Digital WD1007V-SE2 controller. Could some knowledgeable netters please tell me the pros and cons of getting either of these controllers? I would be particularly interested in hearing from people who have used them, though any opinions from others who have shopped around for an ESDI controller would be useful. Thanks, Baskaran (bach@vax1.udel.edu)
