Re: [TCLUG:12134] SCSI vs. IDE

[Thomas Veldhouse <veldy@visi.com>]

I have seen it mentioned elsewhere - so I am sure of the accuracy of my
statement.  I am not all to familiar with the internal specifications of
SCSI drives, but have done SCSI programming under Windows (ASPI) - so I am
familiar with how these drives (in my case Mo, CD and Tape) are
controlled.  I am by no means fluent however.  I can say that by IDE
emulating both drives can be controlled with the the exact same piece of
software.  It is clear that the interfaces are very similar.
