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? Here you are wrong, the drive itself has a 68 pin connector, and comes with the adapter to allow you to use a 50 pin cable. I purchased the thing, and have found it, if not the fastest drive I have purchased, at least a very reliable drive so far. Dave Bristel targon@netcom.com
