Appendix B.     Addresses and places to get information about SCSI

B.1.    SCSI document sources

        There are some documents over and about SCSI. Of course, the
        first source of information are the spec documents. However,
        they are hard to read and hard to understand if it's your first
        jump into SCSI.
        If you're familiar with good ol'SCSI-1, there is a very good
        article about "What's new in SCSI-2" in the January 1991 issue
        of "Computer Technology Review". It is written by Dal Allan 
        from ENDL, one of the real "SCSI gurus".

        The official SCSI document distribution listed in the spec is:

        Global Engineering               Telephone:  303-792-2181 or
        15 Inverness Way East                        800-854-7179
        Englewood, CO   80112-5704       Facsimile:  303-792-2192

        Also, there are some places where SCSI information is present
        in electronic form.

        In first place, the NCR SCSI BBS, where the official documents
        are available as text files. Also, NCR has a support bbs for
        their systems, where drivers are available for download:

        The NCR SCSI bbs        : 001-719-574-0424
        The NCR Drivers bbs     : 001-803-843-1811

        *** Please keep in mind that NCR sold its Microelectronic
            Products Division to the Korean Hyundai group. Hyundai
            seems to keep the MPD intact under the new Company name
            Symbios Logic Inc. So, NCR access numbers may change over
            time.

        Also, there are some SCSI vendors that offer bbs support.
        They may or may not have some SCSI-related information.
        For example, the Adaptec bbs has all the ASPI documents.
        Where i have adresses or phone numbers of those bbs's, i
        included them in the adress list in B.2.

        Sometimes it's worth a try on OEM bbses to look for info or
        drivers. Storage Dimension's bbs, for example, has some info
        and drivers for their OEM'ed Bustek/Buslogic host adapters.



        Books, hmm. A few reference sources are listed in every better
        SCSI article, so i list them too <g>... Anyway, i have none of
        them (not yet <g>), so i can't comment on them...

        -- 12.5.95 -- last week i got two german books about SCSI,
        "SCSI-Bus erfolgreich anwenden" from Hermann Stra, an ANSI and
        IEEE member, published by Franzis Verlag, and
        "SCSI-Bus und IDE-Schnittstelle" from Friedhelm Schmidt,
        published by Addison-Wesley (Deutschland). Both seem good, but
        mainly transcripts from the spec - at about DM 80,-- per book,
        slightly steep i.m.o. ...



        European/German Distributors

        Although Distributors in Germany sell to dealers only and
        usually don't give support to end users, they should be able
        to point to a dealer in your neighbourhood that can do both.
        So, i list the most common SCSI-related of them i know.

B.3.    Manufacturer Addresses

        As far i could find out, i listed addresses and phone numbers
        of all manufacturers that came into my mind. It's definitely
        not complete, but this will change over time, i'm sure.
        Some manufacturers are here only as snippets, address parts or
        bbs numbers - mainly because i dragged this from my trusty old
        retrieval system as i once typed it in <g>

        Please give me a feedback about missing companies, wrong or
        old numbers, new internet sites ....

B.4.    Data recovery services


        Although i don't have experience with data recovery companies,
        i collected some addresses; just in case....
        Most of those companies offer recovery from any type of media,
        including disks, tapes, optical disks and others.

        Although i don't have exact prices, i mostly heard figures
        of about DM 1.000,-- per disk, so this might serve as a
        guideline what to expect.
