I have a "Liberator

SCSI disks inside and they are shown as DSSI disks to the VAX.) It came
out of a rack that contained some similar looking SCSI disk boxes that
where connected to a SCSI-to-CI HSC.

It might be worth having then. Although the shipping is quite high, It
would solve the problem of having no scsi on the 4000's. Do you know
how quick they are compared to ordinary dssi drives. I have a hsd05
and it is very slow.

Any idea of the capacity of these and wether they are worth having ?.
They came from a big vax site although they may not have been used
with them.
The pictures looks "squished", and I think the rack is taller than it
appears. The name "Liberator 220" doesn't sound familiar, but I'm
guessing it's a 3rd party equivalent of RA9x drives.
