Those were great!!! I used to service those
beasties in 90' The
great "feature" of the 8" drives in the XT cases were the power
supplies... the earlier power supplies had a capacitor overload issue
and you'd be working in a lab area and hear this loud ka-bang!!! like a
hammer hitting the case with all its might and what would happen is the
large coke-can sized capacitors used to explode! :-)
OH FUN! I hope that doesn't happen as I'm trying to read these
carthridges I've got.
