-
- As far as I know, _all_ SCSI supports multiple devices and drives. The
- main difference between the old and the new types is mainly the speed.
- The present MCA has a 16.6/8.3 Mbyte/sec rate (32/16 bit).
-
- My model 95 has got a SCSI end-connector and external connector too.
-
- Please followup in comp.sys.ibm.ps2.hardware, where this belongs.
