Subject: DTC900 hard drive controller help
Greetings! I have a monstrous old hard disk system (8", 40mb fixed and
10mb removable) hooked to my LB+ via a DTC900 nearly-SCSI controller.
The fool thing didn't survive the last move, and now I'm trying to get
it working again. It's a nightmare of first-generation TTL gates.
If anyone out in netland has full schematics for this monster, or better
yet, a spare that they'd be willing to part with cheap (summer tuition is
coming up :-) ), I'd love to hear from you. DTC doesn't even want to
admit they ever made the thing in the first place, and the documentation
I have doesn't cover circuits or operation at all. Can someone bail me
out?
(Just between thee and me, I'd *much* rather ditch it and get a nice,
quiet 3-1/2er in the 40mb range, but the wife'd pitch a fit if I did :-) )
