- I can't wait for Stacker to ship, running very low on space. After
- much research, I got info on the type of SCSI card I can use for my
- Model P70. Question is, I can buy the "kit" from the mail order
- place (213 MB Maxtor external) or buy just the card, cable and case
- (which allows for two devices) and then buy an internal Bernoulli box
- to fit in the case (provides 90 MB for each cartridge). I realize
- that most likely I can't get HPFS on the Bernoulli (since it would be
- connected to a Future Domain card, not their own), but it does provide
- expanded space.
-
- Decisions, decisions. Do I buy the HD (I can always buy a Bernoulli
- later for the second slot in the case) and get HPFS (and probable use
- of Stacker/Os2 on it) or buy Bernoulli and never get HPFS and
- Stacker/Os2? I currently have a 120 MB disk with an OS/2 extended
- partition (HPFS) taking up 90 MB of it.
