At one point, I wanted to see how far I could push the
envelope. I used
a dual M8192, a DLV11-J, a quad 4 MByte memory card (a friend attached
the extra wires to convert the 18 bit backplane to 22 bits), an RQD11-EC
(quad ESDI hard drive controller) and a DHV11. In this case, the ESDI
hard drives were attached to cables running out the back, as were the
cabinet kits for the DHV11. Power is very limited to 16 amps on the
5 Volts for the VT103. Whenever I used and ESDI hard drive, I always
used an external PC power supply for the power for the ESDI hard drive.
Sincerely yours,
Jerome Fine
One guy in Sweden put a uVaxII in the VT100 with IIRC a DZV11.
I had the wire list for the backplane mods but I think I lost it.
