Lines: 17 Has anyone tried using a standard Sun shoebox disk with a VAXstation or DECstation 3100 ? Sun already provides a cable which will adapt the older, larger "D" connector on the shoebox to the newer minature version used by both the new Suns and the VAXes. The plugs fit, so one might be tempted to try it. Why would I want to do this ? We have VS3100s with too few disks and Suns with too many.
