Message-ID: <3e9fa283.6bad@apollo.COM> Date: 22 Sep 88 17:57:00 GMT Organization: Apollo Computer, Chelmsford, Mass. Lines: 24 Has anyone tried the Miniscribe 6085 drive with an RLL controller? I called the manufacturer who says they don't recommend it, but since they market a separate, more expensive drive for RLL use, I would expect them to say that. If it won't work, fine. Their RLL drive is the 6128 and goes for about $900 with the Adaptec controller. Anyone out there who has had experience with this combination? I would be using this stuff with Xenix, er, SCO Unix/386 (a.k.a. Xenix v2.3.1) and would like to hear from anyone who cares to comment about the use of RLL with this OS. As always, thanks in advance.
