I was searching on eBay for ESDI stuff, and came
across an ESDI MO drive. Now, this was listed by one
of those listers with eight pages of terms and
conditions, and one line of a really bad description.
It is listed as ESDI in the title, and in the auction,
but near the bottom, it's listed as SCSI. I really,
really want this drive, and I want it ESDI. But I
didn't want to buy this and have it be yet another old
SCSI MO drive. So, I checked with the seller - they
have a website complete with live chat.
I won't post the chat transcript since it's pretty
long, but basically the guy first tried to evade with
"We don't offer technical help" and stuff to that
effect. I was not aware that "Is it SCSI or ESDI" was
such a complicated question. But, he eventually
decided that it was SCSI - I believe he called the
stock room.
So, did they even make this drive in ESDI?
