- We recently purchased a product from Peripherals Test Instruments
- (1-800-829-SCSI) called SCSI ToolBox that allows us to de-classify SCSI
- disks using a PC. We have the same situation you described (Ultrix machine
- that is already classified) and this product was blesses by our DIS office.
- It was relatively cheap, and any PC you have laying around not doing much
- should be sufficient to do the trick. Much better than never being able
- to use the disks again! Let us know what solution you end up using.
