Subject: RK05s are connected to Witch Posted By: Ashley at CSC Time Posted: 7/28/2004 12:36:14 PM
Last weekend I installed an RK11D disk controller backplane and 4 cards in the 11/34 Witch. I then hooked up two RK05 drives. One of them works fine. I tried spinning up the JEFF: disk that we purchased in 1977/78, but it was wobbling, so I quickly stopped it before a head crash occurred. Two other RK05 packs work fine and can be read and written to.
The WITCH has been brought back to life for you by Kevin, the original wizard.
