Micro sci controller

["Mirko" <mirko@yack.com>]

Hi all,

I bought some apple ii cards on ebay, one of those is a Micro sci drive 
controller, I put it on my Apple IIe and it is functioning, anyone knows 
what are the advantages of using it ? I'd like to know  why does it hold its 
own Eprom, is it to control a dos/prodos cache ?

I suppose this controller should be faster than standard disk II, but don't 
know if it can handle higher density diskettes (probably not using standard 
disk II drives..)

Does anyone have a link with more info on it ? II would appreciate if anyone 
has a MicroSci disk utility image to share on the internet (I think the card 
was supposed to have at least one test  disk ...)

Thanks

Mirko
