Come ON people?! This is my third request for help without even a
"sorry, guy" e-mail. I have a Shugart Associates SA-1004 disk drive and
its SA1400 controller. I talked to someone in California today who told
me it was an ESDI (?!) interface, which I have a hard time believing.
The SA1400 glossy brochure says it will control up to four SA devices
from a floppy controller, but of course doesn't say how. What I am
asking for is:
(1) pinouts for either or both of the SA1004 and/or SA1400
(2) Some address where I can send a check for less than what I paid for
the drive to get the information.
(3) programming data on the SA1400 controller or an address as above.
I want to either use an ST506 controller with modified cabling on the
hard drive itself or a Z-217 FDC on the SA-1400 controller. Either
would be satisfactory, but I NEED TO FORMAT THE DRIVE!
Please! Some one out there has a book, an address, or just some
sympathy.

I offer you my sympathy... Have you tried the INFO-CPM and/or INFO-MICRO interest groups? It is there you might find what you need as they cater to the old ways. Good luck, Gern -------
