Latest acquistions

Ok so I just picked up two very cool things for the House of VAX. They are both DSSI to SCSI controllers. One was a rack mount box containing two CDI-4000 DSSI->SCSI controllers made by CMD with front panels. The panel looks a lot like the HSC-50 front panel. One was made by DEC and plugs into a Storage works storage shelf! That one is so cool. Turn a storage shelf into a DSSI shelf. Its very weird to see the RZ29's in the shelf with labels DIA240, DIA250, etc. I also picked up three storage works shelves, two with redundant supplies and one with only one supply. Generally they have 4, 5, and 3, RZ29's in them. The one with 4 has the DSSI converter in the other end. I've got to get pictures of these up on the web site soon, they are really neat. I also picked up a bag of third party MMJ to DB25 hoods, they appear to all be males (so not too useful for my DECServer or folks connecting to a PC without a null modem gender changer. --Chuck
