From what I can tell, the Corvus was an external hard drive that
connected to a number of machines over some kind of network. I never used
the Corvus stuff but I think it must have been relatively common at one
time. I've seen a number of Corvus cards floating around. I've also seen
one or two of the drives. I had/have some Corvus PCs cards and I did know
where there were a couple of thin manuals for it.

While going through the manuals for a Stride 460 last
night, I finally
discovered what the LAN port was for - Omninet (Corvus). I know of exactly
one
other machine with Omninet- the Research Machines
Nimbus. Was this network
widespread once? What kind of topology did it employ? Are there NICs for any
other computers, perhaps even PCs? Any information is welcome.
