". It might be possible from the info to tell which one is the MKII"

Could this be a clue, or is it meaningless?
The diagrams show switch W as having ports named #0 thru #15 while switch V's ports are named #1 thru #16. Maybe Craig Stevenson recalls how Ancor labeled the MKII.

Here's something from Micron Electronics, one of the top ten volume manufacturers of PC's:

Micron Electronics Introduces the DataFRAME 450 Disk Subsystem for
Highly Scalable, Fast, Cost-Effective Mass Storage

Nowhere is SAN or NAS mentioned but I believe that this is what they are talking about. The big difference then(between this and Dell/ Compaq) is that they are going with a SCSI-based solution -- at least for now. Probably not a bad idea since the two superpowers(Dell and Compaq) haven't announced plans for SCSI(that I know of).
