Here is a
warning for anyone looking to use these under VMS though, they
do
not support Volume Shadowing. As such I'd
really only recommend using
them
for a disk to backup to.
This sounds like you've tried? I recently had a go at putting a 140GB SCA-80 SCSI
disk on my VAXstation
4000-90 and it didn't want to know. I've not investigated very far and it
may be something very simple, but it just diudn't play ball. Similarly a
68-pin 36GB device didn't work. I do, however, have 3 18GB 68-pin SCSI
disks working in there quite happily.
The guy from Island Computing (his name escapes me at the moment) reported
this a few years ago on comp.os.vms. The latest SCSI drives won't sync down
to Narrow SCSI.
