Your other reply suggests that the DEC 8837 does have
an almost equivalent
in the NS DS8837 which I have found a source for. I am unclear if you think
NS devices would do or not? What is the worst that could happen if the NS
part was not up to DEC specifications?
The worst? It'll work intermittanylu, giving oy a nasty fault to trace
(but you'd have a good idea where to start looking), and maybe even
corrupting the disk (if it deselects it halfway through a write operation
for example).
More likeyu : It won't work at all
Very likely : It'll work fine.
