I agree. But we love MPE's reliability and dependablity - if we can
have it with true OPEN, "plug and play" type standards - then great. If not,
HP ought to be clearer about it - perhaps calling it HP-SCSI.
I hope someone from HP can clarify what we "gain" by the "special"
nature of SCSI disk drives for MPE. Still, I like this situation better
than a unique, (e.g. HPFL) solution - we do gain from the wider experience
everyone has with SCSI, even if we do have to buy HP MPE "special" SCSI drives
to work with an HP3000.
