Wanted: A2090 SCSI/MFM controller
« on: July 09, 2007, 11:55:45 PM »
Please let me know if you have one of these
available. I know they're not the easiest
of things to use, nor the best choice, nor
the fastest, etc, but I need one to access
data I have on an old MFM hard drive. Also,
if you have a A2090B (Autoboot Card) as well,
that would be very useful to me. Thank you!

Regards,
Chris Vick

Thanks, but I already talked to him; He
had sold his A2090 about six months ago.

If you want to access an old MFM drive it must have been formatted with the very same controller type.


Understandable; How many possibilities does this
leave me with? A2090 or A2090a? Any others? If it
was formatted with the A2090a, will the A2090 not
work, etc?
