Wayne Sung wrote an article on interfacing a Bournelli drive to a CP/M
computer in the January/February 1991 issue of The Computer Journal. It
included both schematics and source code and involved adapting the
parallel port to a SCSI port. Since SASI is the forerunner of SCSI, I
would think you could get a headstart with Wayne's approach. You can
order the back issue for $4.50 (US) or $6.00 (Foriegn, airmail) in US
funds. Ask for issue number 48.
