I use a Buslogic 747s SCSI II card with the Buslogic ASPI manager
called BTDOSM.SYS.

I too have loaded the ASPI manager at the top of my config.sys
(following a files= and buffers= lines).
Will this be OK or do I need double buffering?
Actually I use NCACHE from Norton Utilities not Smartdrive.
Does all of the above still apply?

Thank you very much for the help.
