I've been poking around inside my HP9000/C180 machine (1x SE Fast-10 narrow SCSI, 1x
FWD integrated, 1x FWD GSC card).
I am aware that this machine is still slightly stretching ontopic, but the diff part is
definitely ontopic.
Currently, it has 1x4GB and 1x2GB, which leaves little free space with a very off-topic OS
(HP-UX 11.11)
diff SCSI drives, while technically superior to SE, are difficult to find, so I'm
looking at alternates.
Looking at the machine, the SCSI busses appear to have a standard SCSI chip feeding into
differential
drivers. Is it possible to gracefully remove the diff drivers and convert it to
single-ended operation?
