I have V6.something on both which I setup I recently rescued 3 2000s from recycling, and couldn't stand how loud the RD54s were, especially when all 3 were running. I did some research and finally got them all running the Mueller patches to support SCSI drives. Lots quieter now - I can have them all on and still be able to listen to music. Heh...don't knock those RD54s. Several years ago, when I was still starving in the "zero-work zone" (SW Florida) someone *gave* me about twenty of those drives. Selling all but three of them on eBay paid my mortgage for almost a year! Had I known then what they'd be worth today, I'd have stockpiled thousands. -- VAXman- A Bored Certified VMS Kernel Mode Hacker VAXman(at)TMESIS(dot)ORG I speak to machines with the voice of humanity.
