  11. Has anyone ever used a RZ56 SCSI hard drive on a Sun SPARCserver 4/400 before?
  12. Can it be done? Or is the hardware sufficently different that it won't work
  13. with the SD driver? (Or for that mater, are they plug compatible?)
  14.  
  15. If it is possible, can anyone suggest format parameters for the drive?
  16. I certainly don't seem to be able to squeeze that information out of the
  17. VAX the drive is connected to at the moment.
  18.  
  19. Also, has anyone ever suceeded matching VAX/VME with SUN/VME?
  20.  
  21. Thanks in advance,
  22.
