Original Post:

  Greetings--

  I'm in need of the format.dat entry for a Conner CFP2107S 2.1 GB hard drive
  for my SunOS SPARCsystem. Actually, I've got everything except the
  controller.

  Thanks!

In short, two people recommended I get scsiinfo, and one sent me a format.dat
entry, which is included below.

Thanks to the following for their response:
