- KEYWORDS:
-

- The information in this article applies to:

- SUMMARY
- =======
-
- The Storage Dimensions SCSI Host adapters are manufactured by the
- BusLogic Corporation, even though Storage Dimensions sells the
- adapters with their own brand name. Therefore, if you have a Storage
- Dimensions SCSI host adapter, the adapter may work correctly under
- Windows NT provided Windows NT Setup identifies the card as a member
- of the BusLogic family of adapters.
-
- MORE INFORMATION
- ================
-
- According to Storage Dimensions, the following Storage Dimensions SCSI
- host adapters appear to work correctly under Windows NT:
-
- - SDC3222F (for EISA architecture computers)
- - SDC3222B (for EISA architecture computers)
- - SDC3211F (SCSI II for MCA architecture computers)
- - SDC3211B (SCSI II for MCA architecture computers)
-
- The letter designation of "F" in the model number represents the "SCSI
- II FAST" interface. This interface has a data transfer rate of up to
- 10 MBs (megabytes per second). The letter designation of "B"
- represents the "SCSI II" interface. This interface has a data transfer
- rate of up to 5 MBs.
-
- Because these Storage Dimensions SCSI host adapter cards do not
- actually appear on the Windows NT Hardware Compatibility List,
- Microsoft cannot guarantee that they will work correctly with Windows
- NT.
-
- The Storage Dimensions cards with model numbers SDC1602F and SDC1602B
- have not yet been tested with Windows NT. This article will be updated
- when this information becomes available.
-
- The Storage Dimensions SCSI products included here are manufactured by
- vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or
- otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
