Is anyone using a WD1007 with a MAXTOR XT4170 hard disk? Im using it in an AST
386 running XENIX 2.3.1. The basic problem is that the system locks up whilst
accessing the harddisk. Apparently the WD ESDI controller doesn't work all that
well with a hard disk with more than 1024 cyclinders.
The dealer told me about a program called SpeedStore from Storage Dimension
that is supposed to fix the problem?
Has anyone heard of this S/W?, will it fix the problem? are they any other work
arounds?
Thanks in advance,
