I'm trying to set up a drive to work on my recently-acquired UC07 SCSI
controller. It's in a PDP 11/23 PLUS.
So far I have tried 3 drives:
Seagate ST32105N, 2.15GB
DEC RH31K-AW (Quantum, unknown model), 1.07GB
Quantum LP105S, 105MB
Here are the results:
Seagate disk: Recognized, fails firmware format
DEC disk: Recognized, seems to format successfully in firmware, fails
RSTS/E DSKINT
Quantum disk: Works fine, no problems.
So I know my controller is working. All I really want to do is have
about 500MB available to manipulate. I tested with the 100MB disk so I
could make sure it worked.
I have a second related question - What are the MEDIA IDs for? i.e.
0-RA81, 1 - RA82, 3 - RA90, 4 - RA91, 5 - RA92, 6 - RD54. The only place
I see this doing anything is in HARDWR LIST, and it will show whatever
media ID you pick.
If I could get the space/functionality of an RA81 or 82 on this machine,
that would be great. Can someone help me out?
Thanks
Julian
