(1) these drives are specially for PS/2 model 60 and 80, but will work
with any ESDI controller

(2) these drives are specially for Compaq, but will work with any high
speed controller
(3) this is a high performance model, with 20MHz MCA controller included
note about MTBF (mean time between failure) ratings: there are only 8760
hrs/year so 40,000 hrs is around 4.5 years
I have a limited quantity of the following accessories, so I'm unbundling
them. They are available with purchase of a drive only:
$120 Ultrastor 12F(Hard & floppy, 32K cache, 24MHz) controller
$5 Drive rails (regular or Compaq), power cable, ESDI cable
$20 Disk formatting software, Ontrack or Storage Dimensions
Terms: cash, cashier's check, COD. Buyer pays shipping. All drives are
guaranteed to work.
Tape drives of various capacities also available, watch this space.
Note: Due to overwhelming response to my previous posting (SCSI drives)
I'm starting the following sales policy: I'll take the highest offer
received within 48 hrs of the first response. This is to allow everyone
to have a chance to read and respond, since news propagates unevenly.
