3620.0. " CHEAPHD project for FRENCH AMIGAN" by EVTAI1::POUTHIER () Tue Mar 27 1990 05:29

	<-------FOR FRENCH AMIGAN------>

	The building of a HARDDISK with CHEAPHD project is very 
	easy and the system is really good and run perfectly.

	If you need, I have an distributor for SEAGATE interface
	ST11M OR ST11R, the cost is 315 FFR HT.

	For my project I have used an ST11M with a RD52.

	Regards,

	MP

3620.2CHEAPHD after GVPIICRISPY::NONDEPIl est des fois que je souhaite....Tue Nov 19 1991 11:2116
    Michel,
    
    I'm almost there with someone completing the the board for me ! Its a
    shame that i couln't find a 86 connector they now have to fiddle with
    the one i have bought. 
    It looks so simple indeed that i've seen the board almost completed.
    
    I have a question. 
    
    Can I plug the project out of any thru pass port ? Like I'm thinking of 
    buying for my X'mas the GVP "II HP"hard disk to have a SCSI controller 
    access for a tape streamer that I have acquired.
    
    A bientot, Patrick

    Yes its possible. I have the CHEAPHD print connected to the feeded
    through bus of my just purchased SUPRA drive. It worked without any
    problem.

3620.4More good news please !DUCK::NONDEPIl est des fois que je souhaite....Mon Nov 25 1991 12:1511
    Jos,
    
    This is real good news. So I could have:
    
    AMIGA500 + CHEAPHD(PCB BOARD + ST506 Controller + RD53) + GVPHDII +
    Tape streamer........
    
    Can you please give me more details as to how you connect all together.
    A drawing and maybe a few non technical explanations would be great !
    
    Thanks in advance, Patrick Nonde @wlc

I have followed with interest the last few notes...

I have a a1000 with effectively a cheaphd interface.

In a previous note I stated that I was looking for advise re scsi adapter with
scsi direct capability.

I was also looking for advise re scsi->st506 adapter.

I have I have read the previous note correctly, I could get a ????? scsi adapter
which would have pass-thru, and not require the scsi-st506 adapter (at this stage).


Can anyone fill in the ??????

(I wish to run a tlz04 BTW)

Stan.
