In this the weakest link would appear to be the SD Card.  As such it seems to 
me that the best solution would be to have 2 or more SCSI2SD?s in the device. 
I?m not sure what benefit would be achieved by using a single board to present 
multiple devices.  Unless of course you had a drive size limitation, or you?re 
trying to emulate something like 2GB or 4GB drives.  As an example, that would 
be handy for VAXen with a 1GB Boot Drive limitation.

Zane,
   I am using SCSI2SD cards in a VAXstation 4000/90a, and in a MV3100-80 as 
well as 
an Alpha DS10. 

  In the two VAXes, I use two SCSI2SD cards, configured identically with a 
system drive and a 
user drive on class 10 16GB microSD cards.  So each microSD card has both the 
system drive 
and the user drive.

   Thus I can use VMS backup from one microSD card to another so that if one 
microSD card fails I can 
easily recover from it. So far I have not had hardware failures, but being able 
to recover from a 
bad software installation which has been VERY helpful.
