The SCSI connector on the bulhead of the 380 CPU card is a standard 50
pin SCSI-1 single ended SCSI connector. Like most SCSI initiators the
bus is terminated on the system board. The built in interface is
equivalent to the 98568A DIO SCSI interface card. I have never tried to
boot from a ta
It looks like the on board SCSI is straight through wikimedia has images of
the 380 CPU board plumbed to the bulkhead with just a cable/connector

Also, HP 16 and 32 track tapes are NOT compatible at all with
QIC. They have no EOT/BOT holes. If you put an HP tape into a

Series-300 doesn't support booting from SCSI/QIC tape
It does support SCSI CD-ROM
Docs are on bitsavers or the HP Museum sites
I have one of these, but the system has HP-IB disk and tape. I'd like
to use a SCSI tape to install on it. On the CPU card, there is what
looks like a 50-pin connector. Does that need active electronics to
work like the second HP-IB bulkhead that currently occupies the slot?
Also does anyone ha

Slash 6 or one of the other 24-bit machines they made?
any of the tapes for the OS (Vulcan?)
Hi,

Hi friends,
I've been building up a nice little PDP-11/23+ with cabinets, RL02's etc. To
really round things off, I'm looking for a open reel-to-reel style 9-track tape
drive to add to the system (don't ask why, punishment must be somewhere in my
nature). Not interested in the autoloading/dra

Anyone have any HIPPI stuff, preferably for sale? The machine I have

I tossed a ton of 100 pin hippi network cables a good while ago. They came
with my Cray systems. Never thought I would see
