Has anyone used an 1GByte IBM L12 SCSI drive with an Adaptec 1542 ?

Are you satisfied with its performance ?

How much did you buy it for and where from (USA / Europe) ?

Does anyone know a source for VESA local bus 486DX-50 motherboards,
or an estimated time for widespread availability?

I was planning to purchase an OPTI local bus board from PC Turbo Corp.
in La Puente,CA, for $1090 (MB & VIDEO), but they now claim to be out
of stock and waiting for VESA boards to come in next month.  All other
companies I've contacted seem to be totally clueless on the topic!

If anyone has leads on:

o Curently Available equipment
o Suggestions FOR/AGAINST local bus
o Estimated Widespread Dist. time of VESA bus machines

please contact me via email -> edh@slrt1.sensor.ri.cmu.edu

I'll summarize if interesting/useful responses are received.

All caches are subject to thrashing... it's just that 2-way
caches are twice as likely NOT to thrash.  It just depends on
the data being accessed.  Typically, if your data is MUCH
larger than the cache, you will be thrashing all the time
(like with huge spreadsheets)... that's when smarter caches
are desirable which detect and adapt to changing data access
patterns.  Those type of caches have typically only been used
in mainframes, but I'm sure we will see them in PCs pretty
soon.

As for the 16-byte line fills... most 486 caches have this
feature and allow the 486 to burst the line.

Subject: Interface board design question
Organization: Private Organisation fuer angewandte Informagie
Date: Tue, 01 Sep 1992 12:15:35 GMT

Hi,

I'm designing an interface board which makes use of the DMA request lines.
The board interfaces to a kind of sensor. This sensor is working without
interruption, so the board will always request for a DMA transfer, no matter
whether you want it to transfer or not.

1- Is it right that you can enable the transfer process by programming the
   DMA controller chip? How is it done?

2- Will the continous DMA request be ignored while no transfer shall take 
   place?

3- Is there anything special about the AT's 16-bit DMA transfer? Where lies 
   the "wrap-around" boundary?
   
Thank you,
Martin from Berlin, Germany.

What OS are you using? Mine is installed on a DOS/Win machine, so there is
a low-level formatter "built-in." Just go into debug and enter something
like: -g c800 (or something like that). If you still have your documentation,
it's in there somewhere.

Well my TVM MD-11 (about 5-6 years old) can do 1024*768*256. Since you'd
be probably running in Analog mode, the number of colours you could
display **might** be infinite (well 256 at least). I think that it's the
scanning rate of the monitor (vertical and horizontal) that make the diff,
as that determines what resolution you get (i.e 800*600, 320*200 etc).

Oh well, if it works, don't complain! :')

...and, from whom could I purchase one?  Would an EISA bus be cheaper?

Another related question:

A comparison benchmark I saw recently (sorry, I don't recall where) of
local bus video has an interesting statistic.  It showed that all the
local bus video cards (well, the ones they tested) only provide a 16
bit memory interface.  This was apparent from the benchmarks; moving
DWORDs was no faster than moving WORDs.  I can understand why this
would be, since all the local bus video cards use the same 16 bit
chips (S3, ET4000) as are used in ISA bus cards.

So, does anyone know if there are any VGA cards for local bus with a
*real* 32 bit data path?

Organization: USAF AL/CFH, WPAFB, Dayton, OH

Hello,
I have been considering buying a DX/50 system with local bus.
Ideally,  I would like to have local bus Video and a local bus IDE disk
controller.
One of the vendors that I have been talking to, Zenon, says that they
have a VESA local bus for their 486 systems.  However, for the DX50 
system, they are only able to use the local bus video card in the system,
relegating the IDE disk controller to the 16 bit ISA bus.  He "explained"
that this was only a problem with the dx50 system.  DX33 systems could
have both video controller and IDE disk controller on the local bus.
He seemed to indicate that this was a universal problem (other vendors
will try to sell me the dual local bus configuration, but they will have
problems, the system will lock up).
Not that I doubt the veracity of this individual, but this statement does
sound somewhat self serving.
If anyone has any info on this problem please respond via email (or post
if you prefer, I'll read it).
And if anyone has any information on Royal Computer or Zenon Computer about
their products and support please respond also.
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely

Adaptec will sell you manuals for any of their controllers.  I don't have
their mailing address at hand, but I suggest you call them.  They maintain
an information line that tells you which manuals are available, the cost,
and the address to write to.  I also don't have their phone number, but
I believe I got it by simply calling 800 directory assistance to get their
800 number and worked from there.

Hi, if you or someone you know is using a Microsoft Mach20 286 accelerator
(this upgraded an original 8088 PC to a 286 w/ memory caching, hi-density
floppies, etc) please contact me via email. I am having problems with my
3.5" floppy drive, and before I blow $70 for a new drive I'd like to find
out if anyone has had similar problems. Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Does anybody know if there are any video editing packages for the IBM PC
compatible; something like the Video Toaster on the Amiga?

I've heard about the Video Blaster, but with this, you can only read in
video images, and edit them. You cannot send the result back to either
a video camera, or a VCR.

Thanks in advance.

Sylvie
