Yep, if the mech has an ST506 interface, an appropriate controller (I got an
Omti) and the usual ST DMA->SCSI adaptor card will give a viable drive. The
Omti controller which I use is an RLL controller, small speed tradeoff for
greater storage space. I got my gear from an ICD kit supplier in the U.K.
