COMMENTS.
Note 1. See Tech. Tip. for information on installation.
(The SCSI protocol chip is NCR 53C90)
We suggest that the M2614 drive be used, rather than
the M2612 which is too small in capacity to be practical
in use. The M2613 may be O.K. for a single user, but
again is probably too small for a Multi-user environment.
