Yep. I'm not in the workshop so can't easily
check, but I know we have
one on the 'someone might need one one day'
floor, and I'm fairly sure
I've got the manual at home. It's SCSI-1
AFAIK.

AFAIK the Philips CM100 inside the RRD50 used a proprietary interface,
possibly a variant on ESDI - that's one of the things I'm trying to figure
out. It maybe that DEC put a SCSI-1 bridge controller inside the RRD50 box
so it presented that interface to the world.
If possible a scan of the manual would be greatly appreciated. U can
contact me off line to figure out how to do it.
