Does anyone know whether the SCSI interface on the 3/80 is compatible with
the one on the 3/50 and 3/60? We already have a 3/50 with a 3rd party SCSI
disk attached (Wren-IV), and would like to do the same with the 3/80.

Also,
        Is the interface on the 3/80 sync or async SCSI?
        Does the 3/80 have the same SCSI connector as the 3/50 (i.e. 50-pin
        D-type connector), and is it wired the same way?
        Will the OS support other peoples drives, as on the 3/50?

Any stories about connecting 3rd party drives to the 3/80 would be very
useful.
