- I run a Western Digital WD1007 ESDI controller and an Adaptec 1542B SCSI
- controller in the same machine and they co-exist very nicely. The ESDI
- controller handles a hard and two floppy disks, the SCSI controller handles
- a CD-ROM and SCSI tape.
-
- As far as what was required:
-
- - disable the floppy controller on the SCSI board (I use the
- floppy controller on the ESDI board)
-
- - install the Adaptec ASPI4DOS driver
-
- - install the CD-ROM and tape drivers
