Can a PDP-11/03 handle a SCSI Adapter? Something like this might be fun for my
PDP-11/73. It's already practically silent since I moved it to 3.5" SCSI drives.
:-)
An 11/03 can handle any qbus scsi adapter. They are getting a bit expensive
lately, though.
Sadly, it was listed as being out of stock when I
tried to order a couple of them. I hope they'll reappear soon. I also want to try one
in my Amiga 3000, where the Aztec Monster CF adapter that I tried didn't make the
computer happy. I ended up with another card reader meant for 3.5" floppy bays just
sitting loosely in the system's hard drive bay, since the mounting screws didn't
line up. If the SCSI2SD will work with my A3000, it should install more neatly.
The A3000 is a system that this seems perfect for, I for one will be interested in
hearing your results.
