If anyone has removed the write protection circuitry from either a 8" or 5 1/4" Tandy hard drive I would appreciate a note of the method used. I am trying to dope it out myself, but any help would be appreciated. Does anyone have a WD SASI card available, such as is used in the 15MB external drive? Can a XEBEC 1410 SASI card be substituted? Thanks to gary@wibbs, I have a working copy of ucpm (CP/M SSSD to Tandy XENIX). If you want either a uuencoded binary or source, send me mail. I have a note giving instructions on upgrading 256k RAM cards to 1MB via the substitution of 41256 DRAMS for the 4164 devices.

Finally, I have UNIX|STAT 5.2 from perlman@wanginst operating under XENIX 3.0. This is a big stat package; source + binaries are two DS disks.
