IMI drives (was WTB/WTT S-100 Chassis (UK/Europe only))

I'm running two 150MB Maxtors and two 20MB IMIs on the same system BTW. I don't believe there are any CDOS drivers for it though, so you'd have to run any CDOS or CP/M programs in Cromix. As an aside, there's also an ESDI/SCSI controller; they're pretty scarce and your card set wouldn't support one AFAIK, but there is at least one person out there putting a 1.2GB disk into his Cromemco (you know who you are); not sure if it's working yet though, looks like the drive may be bad.
