#28291– WANTED: Custom ASPI drv! Message #28466

From: Ceyan Birney CDROM Forum · Drives/Hardware October 12, 1992 7:12 PM

We are looking to utilize the built-in SCSI-2 port on our Compaq Portable 486c – currently it has only driver support for a few CD-ROM drives. The easiest way seems to have an ASPI driver, and use CorelSCSI to supply the needed device drivers (hard disk, CD-ROM, DAT). Our primary…

Trantor, Thanks for the info… Unfortunately, I'm using a portable computer with zero free slots – I'm using the SCSI port on the ProAudio Spectrum/16 to access a hard disk and CD-ROM… As I understand it, you are also writing drivers for the PAS/16 – any idea when they will…

Hi! I'm looking for someone to write a custom ASPI driver for the SCSI-2 port on the Compaq Portable 486c. I have the appropriate sections from the Compaq Technical Reference Guide and the ASPI specs from Adaptec. This driver would be used to run CorelSCSI software to support a hard…

Albert, Thanks – I didn't know that the 600 meg carts didn't follow a standard… I guess that's another reason to go with the 3.5" drives. Thanks. Ceyan

#20221– #Which Cdrom for SB-Pro Message #20290

Jim, The SCSI port on the Soundblaster Pro is proprietary and will only work with their drive. However, I have heard that their drive (a Panasonic, I think) is fast and suitable for multimedia. Ceyan

Hi! I am looking into magneto-optical (MO) drives and would like to hear some feedback on them…especially when used for daily data retrieval instead of just backups. (Essentially, I am running out of hard disk space on my portable – it's already STACked – and am exploring ways to augment…
