Hallo allemaal,


@ Hervé: Bien venue!


Ethan> ... and restored them.

What did you have to do?

Three years (?) ago I received three 9060's and one 9090 from Jaj Janssen (Duisburg, Germany) for repair, whom on its turn got them from Anders. After hearing this http://www.dienstagstreff.de/ gave me another 9060 to repair as well. I managed to get only one 9060 to life again :( Three harddisks were broken but this was not a problem as I found out that I could use Seagate ST-225's as replacement. Four DOS boards were brooken but I managed to repair two. The other two are repairable as well IMHO. But the biggest problem were, what I call, the "middle boards". These bords have been placed between the harddisk and the DOS board. They are equiped with a lot of, partly unknown, logic around a CPU like AMD-IC. They convert the SASI interface from the DOS board to the MFM interface of the harddisks. And I still wonder why C= designed things in this way. 

I have been trying to figure out how the SASI interface worked but without any good info on SASI and without any good source listings, I gave up: I needed the time for, IMHO, more important projects. But I intend to use the info gathered with my 1541IDE project to replace this middle board and MFM-HD with an IDE-HD.
