It gives separate part numbers for IOP firmware for the 2100, M-series,
and E-series. For the M-series, it only gave the number of the complete
firmware accessory board assembly, but for the 2100 and E-series, it
gave the part numbers of the actual PROMs.

I'll look it up tonight.

That's the main difference between C and C'. The C' uses exactly
the same IOP code as F.

I'm not sure I understand. What does IOP firmware have to do with
drives?
