I've been using C-Ltd controllers and software on both an A1000 and an A500 for several years now and found them to be very reliable (much more so than the company, unfortunately.) The company was good about one thing, though. They did allow distribution of their software WITH DOCUMENTATION via BBSs. If you need the docs (or the latest update to the code) for their SCSIdos 3.x, feel free to call my BBS and grab a copy. No fees, up/download ratios, or anything like that. --- Cal ____ HOBBIT / / / 340 Meg Online HOLE / / / 12/24/9600HST bps AMIGA: ____ / / / Exclusively Amiga \ \ \/ / / "Best Amiga BBS in FL" The computer for the BEST of us! \ \ \/ / July, 1989 Final List(tm) \_\_\/ A comfortable place to meet -------------------------------------- Cal Jones, Sysop. 904-243-6219 24Hrs

Bless you, Cal Jones. I've been looking for a working upgrade to CLtd's SCSIDOS.
The version that I've been using is 1.2, and although it has worked reliably
for many years, it cannot handle anything other than disks. I having a streaming
tape drive that I'm itching to try out. By the way, I have the non-Kronos
(sp?) version of Cltd's SCSI controller. Will the new SCSIDOS work with
that one?
