We have a problem with an IBM 2GB hard disk of the above type. We want to  
use it with a (black) NeXT that only supports asynchronous transfer (i.e.  
scsi-1 commands). Unfortunately the IBM is shipped set up for synchronous  
transfers and with no documentation :(.
Does somebody know how to change the disk-setup? There seems to be no  
jumper available and I don't know which scsi-command could help.
Do there exist prior experiences with this disk on black NeXT? If yes, a  
scsi-sense would be helpful.

Thanks in advance,

     Matthias
