- The responses I rec'd were overwhelmingly positive. 2 negatives and 13
- positives. I just ordered the drive for $459 from DC Drives
- (800-872-6007) ask for Mike. tell him Patrick from Mississippi State
- sent 'ya.
- I will also order a new controller card because mine does not have a
- "user-definable" drive type 47. (mine is pre-defined) But first
- I will try to find a "close" type and see if I can get it to run --
- with maybe the loss of a few megs. any comments?
- thanks to all those who responded.
