and how it was implemented.
Um, yeah. I've had several of the Emulex MD21s in service on up to
300MB drives. They worked. Especially after we got the problem child
to put his drive cabinet on his desk instead of on the floor.
Here's another question for Chuck: if it was purely an economic
decision, why did Sun's sd driver require the ACB4000 or MD21?
I once tried to get my 2/120 w/SunOS 3.5 to talk to a SCSI disk.
No go. So I tried again, with a similar disk (but ESDI) behind
an MD21, and it worked just fine.
