One of our remote sites wants to increase memory and disk space for
a 16MHz 6386. I'm not familiar with the older line, but I figured
some of you probably are...
Questions:
Memory board: I was told of comcode 405568361 for the appropriate board,
which supposedly comes with 4MB and can contain 16MB
total using 1MBx9 SIMMs. Can somebody please confirm?
Disk controller: can I use a WD1007A-WA2 ESDI controller in this
machine? If so, do I have to disable the floppy controller
portion (and how do I do so)? The plan is to use the
"standard" expected 135MB drive (Micropolis 1355), unless
the 300MB Micropolis 1558 isn't too much more money.
Any info appreciated. Thanks in advance.
