I cannot imagine a reason for this, but it is obviously not an enforced 
limitation. We have both an internal 320 MB SCSI drive and 3 external SCSI 
devices (tape, CDROM, 1GB disk) running fine on a 320. Even with a forth 
external device, a mechanically identical Tandberg tape drive which did properly

respond but was unusable due to IBM tape firmware peculiarities (such as the 
unusual ECC feature), the other SCSI devices ran without any trouble.

inetd running without any problems (connected to 6000, 6150, DOS-KA9Q).
