I'm kind of hoping I can use it to run a QBus But _unofficially_ I've seen it run with the signals going down a pair of the round cables used with RK07 drives (not the RL ones which don't have all pins wired). So that was ribbon cable - bulkhead connector - RK07 type cable - bulkhead connector - ribbon cable. And it worked. > SCSI controller, amongst other things. I'll report back my findings... I've run RL drives off a RLV11 on a unibus machine with a DW11-B. That used interrupts and DMA. I would think a SCSI controller should work -tony
