[HECnet] Modest proposal: Media library - Distributed?

Excerpt of message (sent 18 September 2009) by Kari Uusim ki: Andrew, have you tried other ST506 disks than RD53 or RD54? IIRC none of the RD disks were DEC built disks, but relabeled ones from other vendors. That's true, but I think at least in some cases (and, perhaps, on some systems, like a Pro) they required non-standard jumper configurations. Also possibly low level formatting, which might require tools that aren't easily available. paul
