Most classic SASI controllers seem to be little more
than a handful of
buffer and latch ICs though (only about 6 chips total) - hence I was
wondering if someone had chucked together something to hang off a PC
parallel port (and just drive it all in software). Not especially
complex - my worry would be that the SASI target would timeout on
certain ops if the PC parallel port isn't quick enough though.
I have in fact 2 converters to be placed between a PC printerport and a SCSI
device. IIRC, it supports only one device. I used them _years_ ago for a
killed project, where I had to read from an Archive Viper drive, IIRC.
However, I dont know if the converter is stupid enough to be used with SASI
