There is a published list put out by Drive Services Corporation. The
latest list contains settings for over 1600 drive types. Carsten, I
hope you like to type! The only list on the net is very out of date,
it only consists of a hundred drives or so. We've tried a couple of
times to get an updated list going, but so far it has gone nowhere.
I think this information ( both the DRS reference and the list if
it ever exists ) should become part of the FAQ for this group, since
people seem unwilling or unable to post these requests to
comp.peripherals where they belong.
