[net.micro] Winchesters for the LSI-11 Extended Q-Bus

dag (02/12/83)

I might get flames because I'm asking about PDP-11 stuff, but I think the
PDP-11/23 is a micro...

The price of Winchesters is going down.  The availability of good, high 
density mass storage is going up...  I'm running a Q-Bus system and would
like to add some disk storage (At least 5mb) to it.  Does anyone out there
have experience or information concerning low-cost winchester controllers
for the Q-bus?  BYTE doesn't have a large offering in its advertising.
I'm tired of waiting all night for a c compile off of TU-58's...  (I'm 
running RT-11 with the DECUS-C compiler.)

Please send mail...  Many don't consider the oldest 16bit micro to be a
micro, and I'm sure the readership will appreciate not seeing it pass
before their eyes in real-time...  If there is enough interest, I'll post
a summary to the net.  Please express interest by mail too.

					Thanks,
