ISA Slot

This is a Full Height, Full Length 16 bit ISA slot.

SCSI

Internal and External SCSI 1 connectors are available.

Internally there is only space for one 1" high SCSI device, either a CD-ROM drive or a HDD.

Chipset would appear to be Future Domain, Linux support is unknown.

The internal SCSI is 50 pin but its width is half of standard SCSI connector. Also the external SCSI connector is a spceial 60 pin connector rarely found anymore. So its not useful. There is two type of power plug for the drives. An add on ISA SCSI card with Boot Bios will work. Windows loads fine but LILO loads the kernel bz image slowly but after boot init it speeds up again.
