Has anybody used the AMPRO SCSI/plus adapter, particularly on something OTHER THAN an Ampro little board? Especially on a DEC VT180? I'm gearing up to put hard disk on my VT180, a classic "closed" Z80/CPM system, and this is the best-looking approach I've found yet. Also, how likely am I to find "scsi-compatible" disk controllers that won't work with this adapter? And how likely am I to find "ST506" disk controllers that don't work with some particular "ST506 compatible" drive? How careful do I have to be choosing my pieces? Is there any hope taht oops tHAt the DMA chip option will work with my existing system? What is it likely to conflict with? -- David Dyer-Bennet -- ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-mrvax!ddb
