- I've seen ads mentioning ISA and EISA controllers from Legacy, Altec, Zenon
- and Comtrade. These are system vendors who may or may not sell components
- seperately. They'll probably mention what manufacturers were used. Hard
- Drives Intl. is probably a good bet for a source. I think Edge uses a caching
- Mylex controller which is SCSI-2.
-
- My advice. Go spend $2.95 and a couple of hours with Computer Shopper
- and you'll find what you need.
