Jerome Fine replies: I realize this may be a very dumb question, BUT if I have an ST506 Qbus controller (either DEC RQDX1,2,3 OR 3rd party compatible like Dilog or Emulex), would it be possible to change the 34/20 pin cables (NOTE: On the Emulex DM01, there is already ONLY a SINGLE 50 pin cable which is split 34/8/8) and connect those cables in some manner to an IDE drive?
