I checked
again. The connectors on the VAX 4000/500 are identical to
SCSI connectors.
But the wiring to the ribbon cable is different. DSSI uses a
1:1
mapping of pin numbers. The HD50 connector for SCSI is wired this way
to the ribbon cable:
HD50 ribbon
1 1
2 25
3 3
4 26
5 5
6 27
... ...
Yes, but if the connectors on both ends are the same I would be
able to use a SCSI cable to go from the 4000 to the HSD05.
