I'm trying to add some disk space to a 11/750 with an Emulex SC750 controller
and I have been offered some Textor ( or Techstor, I've seen them noted both
ways ) S315 drives.
From a brief look, they appear to be 14 inch sealed units supposedly with
SMD interface and capacity of 300mb ( aprox ).
There is ( as is so often the case ) no documentation, so I'm wondering if
they would be worth the effort. The contoller docs do refer to a Textor S160
drive, and it will handle 300+ mb drives, so there is a possibility but having
done something similar to this reciently I'm not real keen on tackling drives
with no docs again...
So... I'm looking for any info that anyone might have on these drives.
Manuals, installation guides, etc... Or even if someone has had experience
with these beasts and can just say "avoid them like the plague".
So in brief: help??? Replies to the following - Thanks!
