This is a request to net.wisdom for 2 pieces of information, or pointers thereto: Connector pinout and other interface information for 8" MFM winchester drives, like Quantum 2020's and other ancient beasts. These used a 50 pin control cable and a 20 pin data cable. At least some of the pins were compatible with the 8" 50pin floppy connector of similar vintage. This is to help someone upgrade/replace/repair some old PDP-11 equipment with ancient 3'rd party disk add-ons. and on another tangent: Format and content specifications for JEDEC format PAL programming files. This is to help someone update his custom logic generation programs to use with his brand-new PAL/EPROM programmer Many thanks, geoff steckel (gwes@wjh12.harvard.EDU) (...!husc6!wjh12!omnivore!gws) Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with Sun Microsystems, despite the From: line.
