I don't think I want to, but this is an all-JFS IDE-drive system here
anyway.

The SCSI handles only the HP3C scanner.



I have 2940UW2 (I think?) which can handle all three busses, where I had
internal wide (HD), internal narrow (tape), external (via wide-to-narrow
adapter) scanner

I also have a wide one somewhere, but from memory the version I have can only handle two of the 3 in use. Not an issue for me as I used it for an external CD burner. Just something to bear in mind.

Michael

AFAIR, 2940UW had 3 but could only handle any 2, then, Adaptec figured something out, and, made the '2' which handles all three -- Voytek -------------------------------------------------- http://www./melbpc/ - The Melbourne OS/2 SIG
