AFAIK it's not a myth for the microVAX 3100 series, except the models 8x and 9x. The same for the VAXstations 3100. The VAX 4x00 models and the VS4000s have no limit, at least not today. The limit is a little over 1.0 GB btw. Large capacity SCSI drives usually have SCA interfaces. So a converter is required to match the 50 pin connectors in a VAX. Not all converters work and the faulty ones fed the myth, I think.

Afternoon all, What started that myth? I've managed to get a 146G drive working in a VAXstation 4000/60 (10,000 RPM, too!). Unless I did my maths wrong, it's showing up as 136G as a FILES-11 volume(~700M in SHOW DEVICES at the tripel chevron prompt) There also seems to be no 1G boot drive limit on this as my boot drive is about 4G. Was this a limit that existed in earlier VAXstations? -- Cory Smelosky http://gewt.net Personal stuff http://gimme-sympathy.org Projects
