That's odd, my VS 4000/60 and /90A also show non Dec branded disks on the >>> sho dev command. Must check that owing to failing organic memory...

This is great news. I know that there have been various incarnations of adapters that have come and gone and been niche enough that there hasn't been reliable evidence of their functionality computers with older scsi implementations. Typically they are built to support equipment in the music industry. Anything that provides us a way forward is definitely a good thing! I don't like noisy hard drives any more than the next person. I will have to explore my theory of the 18GB limit on the VAXstation 4000/60 and /90 and I thought that was a hard rule, but I'm happy to be proved wrong. It may be that I was using an earlier version of VMS where it definitely is the case that only certain models of drive are supported. I had to root around to find a supported drive for OpenVMS 6.1 - even generic Seagate 50 pin SCSI 2.1GB drives weren't recognised because they aren't RZ* tagged in the firmware.
