It contains fax adapters and other comm cards and is orange fiber attached to the 720. No dasd. >From what I understand everything in the "sidecar" are SPD bus adapters. SPD is no longer supported on the iSeries. PCI is the new bus. Is the migration tower on the 820 the way to attach SPD bus devices to the system ? Steve Richter
