Ijust purchased a Fujitsu M2694EQA 1.08GB Fast-Wide SCSI-2 hard drive
from Fry's for $188. For information about this drive I downloaded a
Windows .hlp file from Fujitsu's WWW site. I still have a few questions
about the drive and if you can answer any of them I would appreciate it.
(1) The specifications say that this drive is SCSI-3 SPI complient. The
drive has one 50 pin connector and comes with a 68 pin adapter. Is this a
SCSI Ultra drive? Could I use the 50 pin connector with a SCSI Ultra
controller card and achieve the same 20MB/sec. transfer rate? Or would I
have to use the 68 pin adapter and a Fast-Wide SCSI-2 controller?
(2) Fry's told me that this drive has a 1 year warranty but the
specifications state 5 years. Which is the correct about of time? If
this drive does indeed have a 1 year warranty could it be a refurbished
unit? How would I be able to identify this properly?
(3) Is there an e-mail address for Fujtsu's technical support? If not,
what is their telephone number?
(4) Any miscellaneous comments would be appreciated as well.
TIA,
McE
