- I believe that controller (the same one that I have) is a
- proprietary design intended for use w. Sysgen 60MB
- "SmartImage" drives. I think that it is really a variation
- on SCSI, but Sysgen has never admitted that to me. I'm
- looking for an upgrade path from my current tape
- configuration, and I'm really amazed that you've got the
- Sysgen controller working with anything else. What software
- are you using, exactly? What version? I'd like more details.
-
- For more information, why not just call Sysgen
- (800-821-2151, 408-263-1171, 408-263-4411).

- Hey People! Why not call the manufacturers of your own
- equipment (or at least call 1-800-555-1212 to see if they
- have a toll free number) before you "cost the net hundreds
- if not thousands of dollars" by posting?
