Has anyone ever successfully put two hard drives on a VAXstation II?  All
the connectors seem to be there, but the manuals say it is not supported.
I'm talking about a straight VAXstation II, not a II/GPX in the bigger
cabinet.

It looks like all that would be required is remove the TK50 or RX50s and
find the right cables.  How would you connet a write protect and ready
switch?  Or would they not be needed?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
