Speaking of which, does anyone know where to get
controllers and/or
drives to use ESDI on QBus based VAXen?
No, but I recommend looking for Webster WQESD/4 controllers. They're a
dream! Of course I'd more recommend them for a PDP-11, for a MicroVAX, and
old ESDI controller should do.
The reason I like WQESD/4 controllers is that they can partition the drive
into multiple disks, and you can boot any partition under something like
RT-11. Should even be able to do different OS's, but I've not tried it.
