like any good sun3 geek, i have the hardware FAQ on my machine here so i can
'grep' thgough it. :)  grep returns this: 

501-1236   * 6U VME "Sun-3" SCSI host adapter

so i'll keep my eyes out, thanks.

i'm at work right now, so i can't check the part number, but each of the 3/180s
came with a SCSI tape controller, it;s the Xylogics Multibus in a Multibus-VME
adapter deal.  do these have any worth? or are they the 'sc' controllers you
are talking about.  i'd like to avoid these for hard drives anyway since they
are Multibus cards, but i was just curious about them.

thanks for the help!!
