I'm sure some of you guys have the exact answer to
this :
I've got a VAX 4000/705a without any disks.
I could of course get some DSSI disks but I would rather have some
SCSI disks attached to it. My question : how can I make this VAX SCSI able ?
And second question, can anyone help me get any needed hardware to for this
?
If this is like my VAX 4000/500 systems:
QBUS "MSCP" (disk capable) SCSI controllers are hard to find and hundreds of
dollars.
The route I'm trying to go is I picked up some HSD30 controllers on Ebay,
for $35-$45, which I can then supposedly connect regular SCSI disks to,
though I haven't gotten things set up and working yet this way.
