- Can somebody tell me if Columbia Data Products are intending on supporting OS/2
- 2.0 with the WD-7000 FAAST SCSI controller? I have a driver from the 3.35v of
- their software, but it says OS/2 1.x, and I don't know whether this will work
- with 2.0 (And no time to mess about trying it at the moment either).
-
- Can somebody tell me if this will work (Or if there is a later revision of the
- driver software that will?) I know that OS/2 will use the controller via INT13,
- but have heard that this is slow and clunky on disk accesses, so I'd rather use
- a native controller.
-
- Either that or the specs so that all isn't completely lost would be nice?
-
- TIA.
