| subject: | Re: Problem with Universal Disk Controller |
It plugs up ok - even polls a few times - but im not sure if the firmware of the card is expecting a hard disk sector to respond. A shame really - it would have been interesting. I expect I wont be selling this unit, but more carefully taking it apart to take another snap shot at what apple was designing with this sort of technology back in 1985, and poping it up on my webpage - maybe even extracting a bit of info to get any aspects of it into the FPGA domain. This particular design is loaded with a lot of European devices (including a Rodime hard disk, whom, mr rodime, the lucky bugga, now lives off royalities for the HD technology almost exclusively) - so with all these euro bits, it really looks like a corke project. Beautifully made, as was all of apples stuff of that era. steve > I would not even attempt it. An HD20 is worth a lot to the right Mac > crowd.
