491.0. "HD controller?" by ANYWAY::BROWN (The Universe, 11 dimensions??!!) Thu May 07 1987 11:10

      I have a couple of segate st-506 drive which I want use for my amiga.
    I have been pawing through various magazines looking products that
    I could use to do this.  To date I have not found anything.
    
      What I had in mind was either, a) buying just a controller board
    from some other disk product and connecting it to the drives or,
    b) buying a scsi? controller board and an scsi adapter for the
    drives.
    
      I am open to suggestions or ideas.  I would love to  get these
    disk hooked up the the amiga...  Also, I am not above doing some
    hardware hacks to get this working.

    	PAL from byte by byte uses a ST-506 controller. They sell the
    controller ( Zorro I card ) alone.
    
    	A ASDG box ( 2 slot ) with a ASGD RAM card and a PAL disk
    controller would make a great add-on.
