Well, I would call it a success.
They are MSCP disks (connect to UDA50 or KDA50) with
an SDI
bus. They are actually two drives in a single coffin- one
winchester drive (13MByte) and a removable cartridge drive,
also 13MB.
That explains a few things, like the 'Eject' button and the write-protect
switches marked 'Fixed' and 'Removable'. I figured *something* had to be
removable. :-)
I have one here.. just no cartridge.
How do you tell if there's a cartridge in there or not? I haven't powered
them up yet.
Anyway, maybe I'll luck out and there will be an OS on there. Thanks for the
information.
