1 x HSD10-AA DSSI-SCSI controller (what does this do,
exactly?)

Sounds like a very nifty device that can turn a (bunch
of) SCSI
disk(s) into a (bunch of) DSSI disk(s).
I received the following bundle last week:
BA356-KC StorageWorks box/shelf
BA35X-MG 8-bit SCSI interface (dual uDB50's)
HSD05-AA DSSI/SCSI adapter
Indeed, this is expected to allow me to use some nice SCSI SBBs
from the DSSI bus in the VAX 3400 in the basement.
First though,
I've got to scare up a DSSI cable and terminator...
So far as I can tell the HSD05 will not do the RAID tricks that
an HSD10 is capable of. No idea then what an HSD30 can do - maybe
just faster version of HSD10?

Wonder if Storageworks ever offered
an SDI/RA* series converter?

Concerning DSSI cables, there are two types,
one has female IDC/HD type connectors, the
other female mini-''centronics'' type.
I've not yet heard of an adaptor to go between
the two.

Not that I've ever heard of. I would guess that most machines with an SDI
interface would have no trouble being equipped with a CI controller for
connection to an HSJ.

The HSC controllers had an SDI interface available.
But only to disk-side, not to host-side, right? That would make it quite
incompatible with the SW stuff.
