I am interested in obtaining information about the availability of SCSI
trams/cards supporting high performance storage media, such as
Winchester and optical disk systems. I know that INMOS have the B422
tram but who else is supplying systems.

I am particularly interested in high level programming support for
filesystems which have at least some of the functionality of UNIX.  Is
there support in HELIOS, transIdris, MEIKOS  etc. for a filesystem
running on a transputer. What level of programming support is provided
for these TRAMS - is it simply in terms of low level control blocks ?

And finally has anyone implemented any form of distributed filesystem
based on the use of several SCSI interfaces in a transputer array.

		Thanks for for help,
		    Yours,
		       Will
