Subject: Re: Apple HAL XEBEC controller
Xebec made a number of "specialized" bridge controllers, which fit
between
the host adapter, which is what you've
described, in this case possibly
intended to go to a compatible version of their 14xx-series controllers
which, in turn, provides a SCSI interface to an ST506 drive, which you
apparently have on hand.
Yes, though AFAIK all the Xebec controllers of that era are SASI, not SCSI.
It is likely that the 26-pin connector is to the
Apple II version of SCSI
which was put out back then on a 25-pin DB-25 connector.
Sounds logical. Anyone got the pinouts? --
