I know it's a difficult problem to solve, I'm just wishing someone would
solve it. Eventually the MFM drives that still function, will not and it
would be nice to have something that would extend the life of the
machines. The current users of RD* drives for example, would benefit
greatly.

It's a shame that no one has yet built one of
these interfaces that can talk
to an MFM controller. That would have a much wider impact than SCSI.
That would be a handy product, but as discussions of same have pointed
out on this list, it's not as easy of a target (no pun intended)
because it involves analog sampling/synthesis at high (5MHz) rates and
a plethora of on-disk formats.
