Would the Adaptec 2940 and ASPI driver respect the BIOS parity setting
and interact with the ACB4000 bridge well enough for a fairly simple
DOS program to be able to use the ASPI interface to send READ CDBs
to read the sectors from the device? If I had such a device myself
to experiment with I'd probably give that a try to see if it works.
If it would work, I wonder if you could then use something like Ghost to
copy the drive to an image or another more standard drive that could
then more easily be worked with.
