<OT> SCSI drives

[Condon Thomas A KPWA]

Tony,

It took me a while to find it, because they have changed their website
significantly, and I've been using a hard copy for the last 8-10 years, but
this Seagate URL:
http://www.seagate.com/support/kb/disc/scsirev.html

will give a pretty good run down of the various SCSI terms in use, what they
mean and how they relate.

Adaptec has a pretty good page on mixing wide and narrow SCSI devices
located here:

Couldn't make that any longer, could they?  ;-})
