6577.0. "RRD46 Questions" by ZPOVC::COLINTONG () Sun Apr 13 1997 22:14

    Hi,
    
    Some questions to the new 12 x CDROM drive:
    
    1. Does it support DEC3000 servers, or what is the minimum OpenVMS
       version to support ?
    
    2. I cannot find the table-top part # of RRD46, does one exist or
       it is not supported ?
    
    Any comment is welcome
    
    Thanks and Regards
    
    Colin Tong

	Here are the RRD46 contacts: Corporate: Michael Bahlo (Product Management), DTN 237-6875, 508-841-6875, SHR, [email protected] John Celi (Product Marketing), DTN 237-3126, 508-841-3126, SHR, [email protected] Europe: Henry Smialowski, DTN 780-1024, [44] 1329-668196, REO, [email protected] AP: Suresh Jasrasaria, DTN 675-4926, [65] 2904926, ZPO, [email protected] It's not officially supported on the DEC 3000 series. (But I don't know any reason it would not work.) The drive is apparently (only) available as imbedded, and in a StorageWorks box. The BA353 "pizza" series desktop box has room for three SCSI widgets. (It's better if you use as few SCSI enclosures as you can...)

	There is no tabletop available for the RRD46, and never will be. There has not been enough demand for them to justify the required work. Chris
