Is it possible to convert a ST506 hard drive to operate using a SCSI interface ? BTW I'm using an Acorn Archimedes. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - JANET E-mail : vanaards@uk.ac.man.cs.p4 (Steven van Aardt) -- -- Warning this user has been designated for termination on the 21.6.91 -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm most familiar with the ancient Adaptec ACB4000, which has evolved into the Adaptec 5000-series. Similar boards are availible from Emulex and OMTI, I believe. -- ken seefried iii ken@dali.cc.gatech.edu "If 'ya can't be with the one you love, honey, love the one you're with..."

Can it be connected to 3.5" MFM drives?
