speaking of that, how does the rrd40 connect? Not via
rqdx3, surely....
There seem to be two flavors of RRD40 (or maybe one has a different
designation). The earlier one connects via its own special controller
which looks like an MSCP device. It has one ribbon cable connecter, and
the cable usually runs to a breakaout panel with two connectors (A and
B). The other style is indeed a SCSI disk, with the typical centronics
type connectors on the back.
I have both types... the SCSI one I have on one of my DS5000/200s, and
the MSCP one I will (now) be installing on one of my 11/83s.
