Well, I think I already said most of it. I have an AT clone, running (successfully) IBM OS/2 1.2 SE. I would like to run an ESDI drive on this, or a future machine, which probably won't be a PS/2. Does the disk device driver support any ESDI controllers? Or are there ESDI controllers that look enough like standard AT controllers that it works anyway?

I have successfully run 1.1, 1.2 and now 1.3 on a HP Vectra RS/20 with a 105M ESDI drive. There have been no problems. My understanding is that only SCSI drives have given people problems in the past and I believe that things have improved for these drives as well. I don't think that going to ESDI will present any problems to you.
