Thanks for posting these. I know that I just asked
for the jumper
settings but I think I'm going to need more. I want to replace some Shugart
800s in my Intel MDS with the Shugarts 851s and I've been studying the
interface, wiring and S 800 setup and Intel has cobbled up a truely
bizzarre setup and I think I'm going to need the whole OEM setup manual for
the 851 so that I can find out where to make some of the circuit
modifications. A couple of people have already promised to get me a copy.
Thanks.
Joe, in a `normal' Shugart drive installation, a switch from SA-800/1 to
the SA-850/1 is almost a dropin replacement. If it is more than that,
Intel must have engaged in some `hanky-panky' with their circuitry.
Good luck!
