- Is this at all possible? I have a large (300 meg) ESDI drive, and only
- RLL and MFM controllers. I'm perfectly willing to have the drive not
- format to capacity, if I can get even 100 meg out of it, I'd be happy.
-
- (Note: I can't GET an ESDI controller because I don't have a PC. What
- I've got is a mac and a choice between an MFM SCSI controller and a RLL
- SCSI controller, both boards made by Adaptec.)
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
