- What bridge boards are available to translate QIC-02 to
- SCSI? I know about the MT-02, but I do not know if it is
- a QIC-02 <--> SCSI or QIC-36 <--> SCSI.
- The crux of my question is this: I have an Archive QIC-02,
- a QIC-02 controller card (Emerald, not supported by anyone
- or anything except its old dos based software) and an
- Adaptec 1542a. I want to use the tape drive under OS/2 and
- linux, but neither have drivers for the emerald card. Should
- I go out and buy an everex QIC-02 card, or are there bridge
- boards available?
- Those people with large amounts of mental lint related to
- pre-integrated SCSI are welcome to step forward and demonstrate
- their vast knowledge.
- Oh, on a slightly related topic, what ESDI <--> SCSI
- bridges are around, and which are the best? ESDI disks are
- pretty cheap these days, used.
- thanks,
- chris
