In 2021, one of the projects during my Sabbatical was to work over my
VAXstation 4000’s. As part of this, I bought some SCSI2SD boards, and got one
working in my VAXstation 4000/90. I planned to do the same with the VAXstation
4000/60 I have in a rack, but it’s still running off of a rack mount BA350, and
a couple old SCSI drives. I should probably look into what it would take to
put a SCSI2SD board in a SBB.
I need to find time to work on my PDP-11/23+ and PDP-11/73, as I’m sure I need
to replace the caps in the Powersupplies, so I haven’t tried to drive a SCSI2SD
board with a Viking QDT.
