He will give you a good price.
Michael Louie sold me my 32016 board and a number of other bits. I agree
he's a good guy and would happily deal with him again. Consider this
another recommendation from a satisfied customer.
I have a Super I/O Controller board that I got bought
from Harte. It
has EIDE [...]
Sometimes I'm just plain slow. I read about that board with great
interest, but somehow managed to avoid the notion of using it for this
kind of project. Drive cost aside, don't overlook the fact that this
could be better documented, with more FOSS sample code in circulation
for the chips involved, than any S-100 SCSI board. Not to mention
availability of the board for anybody else who'd want to play along.
I will be documentation how I do the port, if that is
going to be helpful.
I think it will be interesting and instructive, even for people who
don't intend to do anything similar.
