All thanks for the responses everyone. I've contacted Sun to quote out a solution. Thanks for the help and thanks to the list. Here is the Summary for the Question: HVD is pretty much stand-alone technology and must have HVD controllers although there are converters on the market. Sun's product: X6541A The Venerated who replied: Rugman, Rob Christophe Dupre Paramasivam, Meenakshisundaram Arthur Aldridge Jeff Graham (Info on SCSI'S: http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/if/scsi/host.htm (faq on scsi signalling types) http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/if/scsi/hostDiff-c.html Orignial Question: SITUTATION I recently received a DAT drive system that requires a HVD SCSI - my box has a SE SCSI controller. I blithely hooked it up to find the SE won't recognize the device (I performed a probe-scsi-all, got the BUS Defualt bug [thanks List Archive for answer around this], got around that to see that the bus has not recognized the device. I ensured my interrupts are all different. QUESTION My question is: Should that SE "see" the HVD SCSI interface in the DAT drive? If not, can LVD controllers (of which there seem to be many) "see" HVD or will I have to find a HVD? If so, where can I find a HVD? It doesn't seem as many people make them. ### Regards, David Rieger _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Feb 27 15:16:49 2002
