Yes, there is a Qbus<->SCSI interface. It is the RQZX1. However, what it does is make the SCSI devices look like single MSCP disks on individual MSCP controllers. Also, I think only a few specific drives have been actually qualified on it... others may work, but may not be supported... Megan

Yes, there is a Qbus<->SCSI interface.  It is the RQZX1.  However, what
it does is make the SCSI devices look like single MSCP disks on
individual MSCP controllers.  Also, I think only a few specific
drives have been actually qualified on it... others may work, but
may not be *supported*...
