Hi,

I recently got some Corvus Transporter network cards for the Apple IIe.

Does anyone have instructions/software for setting up a Corvus network? If
not, can someone direct me to a Web site with information?

Is it necessary to use a Corvus hard drive, or will any hard drive work?

At this point, any information would help. Thanks.

Brian

The Corvus hard drive is the heart of the system. Actually, it is more
a dedicated server than just a hard drive, since it has a CPU. You also
need the Corvus Constellation software. Good luck getting one of these
systems working.

Thanks for the information. I will have to try and track down one of these
old hard drives.

Any hard drive will work. However I don't have any instructions. How about
check http://www.corvus.com/ ?
