I missed the first original post of this, but it's definately a SCSI control
chip. iin fact I have one of these chips on a card somewhere.
it is also used in amiga's etc for their scsi I/F,. I would assume that if
you are using it under a windows OS, it should pick it up. I know it used to
with mine. it's been a while since i've used it tho.

I agree. I have similar cards made by 'mountain
computer' for tape drivers, which use NCR 53C94. One
good point of those cards is that you can talk to the
SCSI chip directly thus they can be used as a
developement card of those chips. I used mine to
control real SCSI drives from within simh.

I haven't seen one of those in years...
i'm pretty
sure it's a controller
card for a maynstream external tape drive (least the
last one I saw was
hooked up to a maynard tape drive)

I just recently purchased an old Toshiba T5200/100
Laptop at a thrift
store. One of the cards installed in it was an
old
8-bit device of
some sort.
First of all, here are pictures of the card in
question.
importantly, where I can download MS-DOS drivers
for it?
Controller. However, I could not find it in the
TH99 archives. The
only match for Maynard on Driverguide is for a
16-Bit SCSI driver from
Seagate. Also, I could not find any info on
Seagate's site either.
get drivers for it?
