I wanted to revive my MicroVax II (BA23 cabinet I

RZ74 (4GB drive) to it. I am writing number from memory, perhaps
I have made mistakes. Will this card on Ebay do the trick?

I believe this might be the easiest way to get SCSI support
on my machine, but perhaps this card is incompatible, or
drive is too big?
I do not have a lot of experience with VMS but want to play
around some on this smaller somewhat old equipment.'

Jerome Fine replies:
This card is NOT designed for the BA23 box. Rather
it looks like the type that would be used with a BA213
box.
But, the price seems correct (if it works) if you are able
to take off the handles and add the see needed for the
1/2" spacing on a BA23 box.
Perhaps someone else can comment if it is a true SCSI
host adapter for a Qbus system that will handle SCSI
drives of the 4 GByte flavour?
Sincerely yours,
Jerome Fine
