I recently acquired an 8" floppy disk drive called MegaByter made by
Sorrento Valley Associates.  It has a controller came with it.  I hooked
it up to my //e, it won't boot up itself on slot 6, and it is not
recognized at all if I use it on slot 5 along with a Disk II card
on slot 6.  Would some of you happen to know this heavy monster?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.  I don't have manuals
or any diskettes (need drivers maybe?) came with it.  Thanks in advance.
