I am forwarding this for a colleague who does not listen to info-vax. Please send any replies to: TSHAW@UNCAEDU.bitnet ******************************************************************************** Re: Dilog 218 To: Whom it may concern; I am the proud owner of a Dilog 218 disk controller and several SMD disk drives which once lived on a PDP-11/60. The controller and drives work fine. We have finally decided to retire the PDP and the idea of using the drives on our VAX has been considered. We own a nice little VAX 11/750 which has 1 gigabyte of DU type drives on it. The question remains, "Can we use the Dilog 218 on our VAX Unibus and if so, what driver do I use?" The Dilog 218 emulates an RH11/RM03 configuration on the PDP 11/60 Unibus. Has anyone tried using an RH11 on a VAX Unibus and if so how? Signed Too cheap to buy another RA-81
