HTH, john John, Thanks for your reply and all the info on Ultra SCSI drives and controllers. Between you and Jeff I have learned a lot. OWC only carries Ultra 320 now. Can you recommend a reliable online source that still carries the older formats (Ultra 160 and Ultra Wide 2)? There don't seem to be that many sites where these slower SCSI drives are still listed. And I'm looking for an external drive which I understand will be harder to find. Elliot -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
