8 bit ISA IDE Disk controller card

[Iggy]

I know this isn't an Amiga component, but I know a lot of you have older equipment you rebuild or maintain.
I was looking through my stores of older components and came across an unusual IDE  hard drive controller card.
It only requires an 8 bit ISA slot (XT) rather then the usual 16 bit slot required (AT).
We used to install these in 68K based PT68K computers, Tandy computers, and IBM compatibles.

Its labeled Silicon Valley Computer, 8 B HARD DISK - ADAPTER ADP50L

If anyone has a use for it, PM me an offer.

I'm not interested in the card but this is just info for anyone who is.

Does it have a bootrom on the card? If not, you can get one from this website and burn it into an EPROM.

You can then insert the bootrom into an ISA network card's bootrom socket.

That's damned useful.
The card has a bootrom, but its liable to be pretty out of date.
This might help.

Btw - Shipping the card to an Amiga.org user tomorrow.

Now, anyone interest in Creative Labs DXR2 and DXR3 Mpeg decoder cards?

Man, with cheap, high capacity pen drives I can't give away zip drives.
