Is there a trick to using Connor SCSI drives on the Atari? A friend has the original Berkeley Microsystems ACST-to-SCSI host adaptor. He has used it directly with several SCSI drives, and with ST-506 drives using an Adaptec controller. But all attempts to connect several Connor SCSI drives have failed ... formatting software consistently says the SCSI device does not exist. What's the problem?

You have a BMS-100 controller. its Great, but not perfect. Likely you will need the BMS-200 (a $75 upgrade). Give them a call; they are very knowlegable, and probably know just what is happening with your Conner drive. Howard Johnson ATT BELL LABS att!lzsc!hcj hcj@lzsc.att.com
