d> ICD has several drivers out there for their host adapters and new LINK d>but above that they are now providing a new driver for Falcon scsi d>support so you can use Optical drives etc on them. I think its called d>ICD BOOT PRO and is available through ICD at a small price. I think the d>PRO version is the one you are looking for unless you need the link for d>Full Scsi command set to hook up to your Atari. Well, fine fact. The PRO level seems to be the one that doesn't require an ICD host adaptor connected. Besides, the combination AHDI 6.03 and HDX 5.01 works fine for any drive I tried so far, on all machines with SCSI port. This includes 128 MB Sony MO, 88 MB Syquest, various fixed HD drives. Streamers will require special drivers for their purpose. The only problem you might have on ACSI based systems is that Atari's software cannot recognize 'big' drives (above ~120 meg) without a matching line in the WINCAP parameters file. ICDs software will format and partition correctly, without manual work. - Peter -
