Seagate SCSI Drives These drives, and all Seagate drives, may be used with all scsi boards sold on this You may also require a drive sled, or other drive mounting hardware. http://www.macgurus.com/productpages/scsi/seagatescsidrives.php
Extractions: The Gurus use, sell, and recommend Seagate drives because Seagate drives have set the standard for excellence among a crowded field of manufacturing endeavor. If you have ever listened to a cheap drive spin up, and then spin down, and felt that incomparably sick feeling in your stomach that accompanies the loss of your precious data, you know why we standardize on Seagate drives. Do they cost more than other drives? In some ways. But if you approach a drive purchase with the understanding that your drive will ultimately fail, (and all drives eventually do), then it is our conviction that you will actually save money by investing in Seagate drives. That day of failure will be delayed longer. You will know, perhaps in some subtle, deeply psychic way, when your Seagate drive is ailing. And when your Seagate drive finally does spin down for the last time, odds are good that it will not fail catastrophically. At least, that has been our experience. And as unempirical as that endorsement sounds, we are not alone in our bias: Seagate drives are renown for raw speed, reliability, and long life.

Extractions: This document contains the hardware compatability notes for FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE on the i386 hardware platform (also referred to as FreeBSD/i386 4.11-RELEASE). It lists devices known to work on this platform, as well as some notes on boot-time kernel customization that may be useful when attempting to configure support for new devices. Note: This document includes information specific to the i386 hardware platform. Versions of the hardware compatability notes for other architectures will differ in some details. FreeBSD/i386 runs on a wide variety of ``IBM PC compatible'' machines. Due to the wide range of hardware available for this architecture, it is impossible to exhaustively list all combinations of equipment supported by FreeBSD. Nevertheless, some general guidelines are presented here. There is a wide variety of motherboards available for this architecture. Motherboards using the ISA, VLB, EISA, AGP, and PCI expansion busses are well-supported. There is some limited support for the MCA (``MicroChannel'') expansion bus used in the IBM PS/2 line of PCs.

NetBSD/mvme68k: Notes On Supported Boards Nearly all of the onboard MVME147 hardware is supported on-board Western Digital wd33c93 scsi bus interface chip using DMA facilities of the board http://www2.no.netbsd.org/Ports/mvme68k/boards.html
Extractions: These are the Motorola Single Board Computers that NetBSD/mvme68k supports. These are the other supported VMEbus boards that NetBSD/mvme68k supports. CPU-specific support for the MVME147 family of Single Board Computers was written by Chuck Cranor. Initially introduced in 1988, the MVME147 family is Motorola's oldest Single Board Computer (SBC) product. It was the first VME board with integrated networking, serial communications, mass storage interface, and parallel port. This VMEbus SBC is based on the MC68030 microprocessor. NetBSD/mvme68k runs on Motorola MVME147 boards, with as little as 4MB of RAM, though 8MB or more is recommended Note: Nearly all of the on-board MVME147 hardware is supported: Parallel port SCSI (most disks, tapes, CD-ROMs, etc)
Hardware Issues Video, CDROM, and scsi support are complex issues, and will be dealt with Many boards that use an MPU-401 interface can be made to work for MIDI files http://www.rodsbooks.com/buy-os2/buy-hardware.html
Extractions: The OS/2 Warp 3.0 box lists as hardware requirements: The upcoming "Merlin" release of OS/2 will likely have higher requirements, at least if some of its extra features (like voice recognition) will be used. Reports indicate that the beta isn't more resource-hungry than Warp 3.0 when only the Warp 3.0 feature set is installed. One major exception: The Merlin beta chews up a lot of disk space about 100MB for a minimal installation, and 300MB or so for everything. As with most software, these requirements, and particularly the RAM requirement, are optimistic. While there are people who are happy running OS/2 Warp 3.0 in 4MB of RAM, these people are rare, and frequently don't run Windows programs. Multimedia support, Internet access tools, and networking all chew up RAM, and so are iffy propositions, even in a system with 8MB. OS/2 is more RAM-intensive than CPU-intensive. If you're satisfied with the speed of a 486 computer, there's no need to upgrade the CPU for OS/2, though even a Pentium computer might benefit from more memory. OS/2 frequently benefits from extensive "tweaking" of settings in the CONFIG.SYS file, and not all of the tweaks are obvious. (For instance, many OS/2 newbies assume that increasing the size of the disk cache will improve performance, but this often has the opposite effect.) There is an

It is aimed especially at hackers and others with the technical skills and confidence to go to the mail-order channel, but contains plenty of useful advice for people buying store-front retail.

Modern main boards offer the following bus concepts (slots to connect the extension boards to the main board): AT and PCI bus are most widely used. On the main board of your PC 4, 8, 16, 32 or even 64 MBytes of RAM Modules can be implemented. For use with Microsoft Windows, Windows 95 or IBM OS/2, OS/2 WARP a minimum of 16 MBytes is required. Modern Personal Computers have a CD-Rom drive installed. It is used to install software such as STN Express. The operating system, the communication programs and other tools are stored on a hard disk. For the best performance of your PC, the hard disk should be able to store 300-500 MBytes of programs and data. Modern hard disks have a access time of less than 12 milli seconds and a data throughput of more than 1 MByte per second. There are different bus concepts for hard disk connection available: IDE bus (requires no extra adaptor with modern 586 main boards) Enhanced IDE bus (requires no extra adaptor with modern 586 main boards) SCSI bus (most flexible, requires SCSI adaptor)
