- You should be OK.

- The story with MS OS/2 1.3 is that you need to use the LADDR device
- drivers for Adaptec. They should come with MS OS/2 1.3. I believe
- they do support SCSI.
-
- If you're still in a bind, and you find those don't work, get ahold of
- the OS/2 Frequently Asked Questions List Release 1.9g. That was the
- last to deal with OS/2 1.3, and it includes a long discussion about
- the various SCSI options under that release. If you can't find a
- copy, let me know and I'll mail you one.
