This one is perpetually listed at $100

Provided I can confirm that it will work with my uVax II and some
obtainable drive, I'd pay maybe half that for it :)
I have no idea if a M5976-A KZQSA works as a general SCSI disk
controller in a MicroVax-II system. At a minimum you would have to
hack the S-Box brackets to fit it into a BA23. Anyone have experience
doing that?
A more desirable from what I have seen "CMD CQD" (search for that)
controller on eBay typically sells for around the $200 range when not
listed by the crazy high price resellers.
In comparison, a Q-bus ESDI controller such as an Emulex QD21 or Dilog
DQ696 might go for around the $20-$30 range on eBay, and a 300MB ESDI
drive about the same.
(Other people might have different observations on current prices...)
