[comp.sys.ibm.pc] DTC 5180 hard disk controller: opinions wanted

hgcjr@utastro.UUCP (Harold G. Corwin Jr.) (10/13/89)

I've a chance to pick up one of these controllers for
less than $50.  Basically, I'd like to know if there
is a "gotcha!" in the controller.  It's a simple 16-bit
MFM controller for two hard disks (both of my HD's are 
20MB Miniscribe 8425's).  Any opinions or facts, good
or bad, will be welcomed.  I'll summarize if there is
any interest.  Many thanks!
