Found some information on this (I think). I have about a dozen of these and
have been wondering about them. Check out the following link from the US

I'm virtually certain I've used a KZQSA in a VAX 4000 model 500
to attach an CD drive to the system and install OpenVMS 6 or 7.
This may be completely compatible with what Jochen wrote, I've
been up all night and the higher functions are going fast...
Didn't actually try a hard drive as there were sufficient DSSI
drives in the system box, but I could try that out sometime this
week I suppose.

OK, for those that were not turned away by the subject line...
I have a small quantity of Western Electric 205B1 2400 baud modems
available. These were designed in 1961 for use mainly on encrypted voice
circuits, and were state of the art for at least a few years. They are 8U
open rack (23 inch) chassis with a bunch of cards with typical "alien"
looking WE transistors and discrete parts. My phone geek friend says they
probably are not RS-232, so don't get any ideas.
These specific units belonged to NASA, and were installed at Goddard
Space Flight Center. I am not sure if they work - I am waiting for my
phone geek friend to play with his. Maybe I should send him two...
Any interest? Make offers.

In light of recent requests, I gathered up the SCSI enclosures that I have
laying around.
Here's what I have off-hand:
(3) Plastic enclosures with CN50 connectors
(2) have 540MB drives
(1) has a 6x read/2x write CD-RW drive
(2) Metal enclosures with CN50 connectors
(1) has a CD-ROM drive
(1) has a 44MB SyQuest removeable carthridge drive
(1) Metal enclosure with HD68 connector
- contains a Seagate Barracuda ST34371W hard drive
(2) Plastic enclosures with HD50 connectors
- each contain an NEC MultiSpin 3X CD-ROM drive
Please refer to this site for the connector types:
http://www.ramelectronics.net/html/scsi_connecters.html
I would want $5 for each enclosure. If you want the drive inside, add an
additional $5. Otherwise I'll remove the drive to make it lighter for
shipping. Shipping additional. PayPal makes the most sense.
Let me know if there's any interest, of if there is a specific connector
type you're looking for and I'll watch out for it.
I also have a bunch of SCSI cables available. They're used, but I'll test
them and sell them for far less than their typical going price. Inquire.

Greetings...
I have a dozen Apple IIe's "Appletalked" onto a Corvus hard drive.(Corvus
Omnidrive SN 398-GM0230-P Rev C --- Mod 74 MB7 - Omninet) but do not
have any documentation at all for the Corvus...
HD Software is Constellation III V3. No documentation for that either!
Right now, everything works just fine.
The HD is loaded with mostly MECC educ software.
I have a filing cabinet of Apple software and would like to add some of
it to the HD.. I would like to dump some of the software that is
presently on the Corvus.
Appreciate hearing from anyone with any info about this drive or the HD
software, or from anyone that might know how to manage the Corvus.
Many tks any help!

Is there a way to get a text list of what files are on a tape that has multiple backups in the Unix 'dump' format short of restoring the tape?
