Hi,
Looking for HD's for a friend of mine who does repair work on
vintage systems and his supply of HD's has dried up so I'm working out a
trade with him. Looking for:
3.5" SCSI HD's in small sizes (40, 80, 120MB sizes)
2.5" IDE HD's in small sizes (40, 80, 120MB sizes)
Looking for around 20 of each type, must be working/tested
condition... Would either buy them for $5 ea or work out a trade,
email me off-list if you have some or can point me to someone who may
have them, thanks.

I think I still have 3 or 4 in the 80-160MB range. Happy to ship 'em
to the US but as the email address in my sig indicates, I am
elsewhere...

All things considered why does your friend not use Compact Flash for the
IDE drives? Certainly they will be more reliable that old hard drives...
Granted SCSI to CF is more expensive - AztekMonster for example, but it
should be very reliable.

Can you supply a link or reference to this "AztekMonster"? Everything I
have found suggests it existed in 2008 but does not any more.
Where would I buy one?

The guy who makes them sells them on eBay, under the name "artmix":

They're still there. I have an AztecMonster that I got almost a year ago but I've
not quite gotten around to trying it out, so I can vouch for their existence, but I
can't yet say much about setup or reliability. My intention had been (still is) to
put it in an SE/30.
There's a Japanese information page here as well:

and a thread at 68kmla discussing it

Those adapters look quite useful. Especially the SATA to SCSI adapter.
Although it says for Mac and AKAI/Emu sampler... would it also work
with a CMD CQD-220 (or similar) SCSI card for the PDP-11?
Or does the adapter only implement the barest amount of the SCSI
protocol just to be able to work on a Mac or sampler/synthesizer?
Cheers,
Christian

Excellent. Thank you very much. It looks like he now also offers a
SCSI to SATA interface as well,
