Message-ID: <8610@batcomputer.tn.cornell.edu> Date: 11 Aug 89 19:52:10 GMT Reply-To: braner@tcgould.tn.cornell.edu (Moshe Braner) Distribution: usa Organization: Cornell Theory Center, Cornell University, Ithaca NY Lines: 23 I'd like to find out what is available in the following categories for an Apollo Domain 3500 workstation. Both hardware and the necessary software would need to be found. SCSI adaptor: we have a portable SCSI tape drive that could be used for backing up the hard drive in the Apollo. How can we get it connected? Floppy drive: this is another backup option, and could also serve for easy Apollo (and the net) <--> IBM PC/AT file transfer. Can one get a 1.2 Meg 5.25" or a 1.44 Meg (or 720K) 3.5" drive? Can it read/write MS-DOS format files? Or only UNIX files? Both? Thanks. - Moshe Braner Cornell Theory Center, 265 Olin Hall, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853 USA (607) 255-9401(INTERNET) (BITNET)
