Daniel… The `rule of thumb' for termination is; terminate the the SCSI devices at each `end' of the SCSI chain, but never terminate any devices in the middle of the chain. Thus if you had an internal SCSI hard drive, and and external CD-ROM attached to the same card, the…
Jacoby… The Adaptec ASPI2DOS.SYS file allows you to make these changes by adding the /p140 and /qxx options. The /p140 option is used to tell the driver when you've changed the I/O port from it's default of 340 to 140 (via the AL jumper…). The /qxx option is used to…
Tom… Not possible to install a CD-ROM on a Novell server? Uh-oh, we'd better pull all our ads off the market! Actually, there are a couple of different companies offering CD-ROM/server solutions… drop by the Corel forum (GO COREL) and I'll fill you in on our excellent product! Yours, Bryan

Toshiba 3301<->Adaptec?

John… Anytime! Yours, Bryan
Chris… How is your synchronous/asynchronous negotiation set? Is synchronous negotiation off? (It should be, if it isn't…) Let me know on this one… Later, Bryan

Chris… Try running the SCANSCSI program. You'll find it on the DOS Applications disk that comes with your CorelSCSI package. This program will scan the SCSI bus to see if it can find the CD-ROM drive (or any other SCSI device on the chain…). If it sees the CD-ROM, then…
Johann… Our current release of CorelSCSI fully supports both the Nec CDR-74 and the Wangtek 5525ES tape drive. I take it that you are booting the SCSI hard drive from the Ultrastor card's BIOS? Either way, we also support hard drives. As for the Ultrastor card, we are currently working…
Gregory… Drop by the Corel forum (GO COREL) and I'll fill you in regarding our CorelSCSI drivers… we provide just such an NLM for use with Novell 3.11, and it's included with our DOS, Windows and OS/2 drivers. Maybe I'll see you there… Yours, Bryan
Martin… You got it right on the second point… our drivers don't replace the ASPI driver; they use it to communicate with other SCSI devices. Thus if other card manufacturers provide a standard ASPI interface for their cards, we would be able to support them as well. Currently there are…
Chris… That is correct. We've decided to direct our efforts into supporting as many SCSI cards as possible for as many SCSI devices as possible. We feel that the ASPI interface put forth by Adaptec is a good, solid standard to go with, and therefore our aim is to provide…
