I'm looking for information on the Xebec Hard disk controller for S-100
bus machines. Does anybody out there have any info, such as manuals, BIOS code,
back-end drivers, or (especially) BIOS code for it and either Compupro or CCS
(California Computer Systems) machines? I will soon be getting one, and I'm
hoping to interface it to what I've got.
I'm also looking for infor mation on an *extremely* odd minifloppy drive I
picked up at a swap meet recently. It's a Teac FD-55A, but it's got a logic
board by somebody called AMust Computer Corp, and has a male 20-pin IDC
connector on the back for all connections, including power. Anybody ever heard
of such an interface? I'd like to either patch it in, or find a real Teac
logic board.
TIA,
Kevin

Sounds to me like the interface used by Apple for their drives (the GCR animals) - see if you can't find out where this came from, 'cause as we all know, when used with standard MFM controllers (WD 1793 or NEC 765) there is a (VERY) standard 34 pin connector used: I've got a couple of Teac 55B's in my system, (double sided version of the 55A) and they use the standard 34 contact edge connector. -- dg@wrs.UUCP - David Goodenough +---+ | +-+-+ +-+-+ | +---+
