The passage on page 112 is interesting:
"The disk controller can control either a CDC or Finch drives". So maybe
only for the "Finch" drives the FINCH adapter board is needed? But what
is a CDC drive then. without the adapter board the 40pin Command/Data
Connector from the WDC Controller must be attached directly to the
harddisk - But I know no interface consists only of one 40pin connector
(except PATA ;))
If wanted I can find out the signals of this 40pin connector because the
signal listing on page 47 is the listing of the 96pin internal WDC
controller connector. This gets changed onto a 30pin connector later.
