scsi driver development

Does the standard NeXTstep 3.0 release have all the necessary
tools for scsi driver development? 

How different are NeXTstep/NeXT machine scsi device drivers
from NeXTstep/486 scsi device drivers?

Is it possible to get a second scsi board for the NeXT?

Thanks in advance,
Eric.

I guess you mean accessing an scsi device via a programm, in that case  
yes. The actual unix device driver is supplied by NeXT.
There is example code supplied how to access scsi-devices, exspecially  
the CD-ROM.

Don't know since NeXTSTEP486 isn't out yet, but I'll guess not so  
different.

As far as I know there is no additional scsi-board avaiable for the  
NeXTcube, but with NeXTSTEP486 I would guess it's possible to put an  
second scsi-board in the PC.

Hope this helps
