be no different... My 'MV3600' (quotes because it is quite a mongrel,
but MV3600 is the closest designation I can figure) originally had
a number of RD54s, but I installed a KFQSA and several RF-series
disks, and everything worked (albeit under Ultrix) just fine and
without any changes... I can't see that it would be different under
NetBSD...

Or get a KA650, and use the SET HOST/MAIN/DUP[/SERV] or
SET HOST/MAIN/UQSSP[/DISK] commands to configure it.
