Richard,
Maybe you can use Linux/Unix on an older PC with ISA slots for this job. If
the Disk Controller you plan to use can be used with these Systems.
But, it may help you, if you could specify what System was originally used
to fill the ST506s with Data. A lot of nice guys are here with most of the
by then common (spoken of the 506s) and even very exotic computer systems
in their collections. I assume there's a good chance that someone here can
help you out.
Regards,
Wolfgang

What's the best way to do this?
I believe I have vintage PCs with ISA slots and ST-506 hard drive
controllers, so that may be an option.
However, the drives I want to archive are not from a PC system, but
have the ST-506 electrical interface.
