  Hi all!

  Does anybody know some way to connect SDI disks to a PC?

  We at Novosibirsk University have an old VAX-11/780 and are planning to
get rid of it in the nearest future. But it has about 4GB of disks connected to it
and we would be glad not to lose them. I have heard in some newsgroup about
SMD-to-SCSI adapters. But we have SDI disks (RA90, RA81).

  Does such thing as SDI-to-SCSI adapter exist? Or maybe there is some
other way to attach VAX SDI disks to a PC?



  Best wishes,

  Tupisin Vladimir, Novosibirsk State University.
