Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
I have always found it interesting how quickly people will go chopping
up circuit boards. Before you do this, consider chopping up a ribbon
cable instead. Ribbon cables are cheap and easy to replace if you
later change to a different make of drive or if you simply screw up
making the modification. I run SA-851's on my 16FDC with a simply
modified ribbon cable.
By the way, based on your description of the symptoms, I still suspect
the 1793 is going bad.

Thanks for the pointer, I'll check into that once I've managed to
confirm whether my 1793(s) are at fault. $25 minimum order, so I'll
have to figure out something else I need from them :).

Ooh, another place I can find 4116s cheaply (even more so than Jameco). Wish I'd
known about this place when I was fixing my Defender boards!
