- ESDI - AT/ISA Hard Disk controller: $150
-
- Adaptec ACB2322B AT/ISA to ESDI disk controller with floppy controller.
- Read-ahead track cache for high performance on brain-dead DOS systems.
- Works fine with 10MHz ISA bus timings and offers optional wait-state
- generation (to support machines with out-of-spec. I/O timings).
- Supports geometry re-mapping for drives with more than 1024 cylinders
- can be used even by poor old DOS (UNIX doesn't need that nonsense).
- Compatible with all major UNIX versions (both SysVr3 and SysVr4).
- Full original documentation included, along with SpeedStor Hard Disk
- formatting software. Drive cables are available if desired.
-
- SpeedStor supports this ESDI controller and provides very thorough disk
- surface analysis. You can re-format selected portions of your drive
- (in case you sustain a head crash or something). The partitioning
- software has very flexible DOS support as well.
-
- Local people (North East Massachusetts) may have installation help.
-
- Interested parties are invited to respond by e-mail or phone.
