Hello, Anyone know if there is anything within ISC unix v2.2 which limits the number of SCSI drives that can be connected to an Adaptec 1542A controller. Seems like I saw something about the HPDD being limited to 4 drives. Thank You, -- "In this world you must be OH so smart or OH so pleasant... I recommend pleasant"----> Elwood P.

Seems like I saw something > about the HPDD being limited to 4 drives. you can have up to two adaptecs. you can have up to four *disk* drives on each of them. you can have up to three other (i.e. tape) devices on each of them. that means you can connect eight lovely 2.5GB drives for a total of 20GB :-) (unformatted). now if i could only afford one of these suckers for my archive, i'm reaching the high water mark..... -- Heiko Blume <-+-> src@scuzzy.in-berlin.de <-+-> (+49 30) 691 88 93 public UNIX source archive [HST V.42bis]: scuzzy Any ACU,f 38400 6919520 gin:--gin: nuucp sword: nuucp uucp scuzzy!/src/README /your/home
