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?
