I've got an external RD53 here (ie., a box with a power supply and
an overprice disk in it), and I'd like to hang it off a hitherto
diskless Microvax 2000.  Do I have to buy one of the "adapter boxes"
from DEC to give me the connector, or can I sneak the cable off
the internal controller out of the box, or should I just rip
the drive out of the external box and jam it into the uv2000?

Any comments appreciated.
