It boots VMS v5 (I think - I am a total newbie here). I believe all the drives are DSSI which is unsupported by NetBSD? I would love to get them going with an operating system I understand!

You could look out for a real MSCP SCSI adapter (means: NOT the KZQSA!), or
just do it the way i did it here: Get a KFQSA and connect the controller bus to
the internal DSSI bus, so you can use the internal drive :-)

But _WHERE_ to get such stuff... don't know the hot sources in US, but now you
know what to have a look for...
