TRANSPARENT UPGRADES!
Now there is a simple way to use reliable SCSI drives on present real-time or minicomputer. Reduce downtime and service calls - eliminate unreliable disk drives. The units directly replace the original drive with a drive emulator and mimics the operation of the original drive, but actually stores data on a new SCSI drive. The change is totally transparent to the operating system. The operating procedures for the system are not altered

MFM / ST506 HARD DISK REPLACEMENT / EMULATION SYSTEM
MFM HARD DRIVE EMULATION SYSTEMS - MFMR1
The MFMR1 MFM drive controller can be used to replace a variety of 5.25" MFM interface drives including Maxtor XT-1085,1140 & XT-2190, Micropolis 1325,1335, the Miniscribe 8425 amd 8438, NEC D3142, D5126, D5146, D5146H, and all Seagates series MFM interfaces from 5 ¼ half High and 5 ¼ full height disk drives of all data capacities. (We have not listed all the drives that are covered by this emulator here, please enquire if you have an MFM drive requirement not listed). Customers can now have long-term reliability, instead of using repaired or second hand product because no new MFM interface drives were available!
HIGH DATA RELIABILITY
The emulator uses SCSI-interface technology, with error correction is resolved on-the-fly inside the drive. The proprietary firmware based translation software enables fast reaction times when needed, and the SCSI drives used although having extremely long service lives are easily and cheaply replaceable, if needed.
LOWER POWER AND HEAT
The electronics used, plus the small size of the SCSI drive used equates to less power used, and less heat produced. The units are fan cooled, with new technology quality fans which are quiet, low energy and with long life characteristics.
SIMPLE INSTALLATION
Simple to use jumpers on the main circuit board select the number of cylinders and heads required, no other set-up is required.
Note that an emulator can be taken from one application, and then re-used on a different application by simply adjusting the jumpers, - no other modification is needed.
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
ENVIRONMENTAL
Humidity: 5% to 80% RH, Non-condensing. Operating Temperature: 0 to 40 Co with 20 CFM.
INTERFACE
ST-506 or ST-412
NUMBER OF HEADS
1 to 19 (Jumper Option)
NUMBER OF CYLINDERS
SCSI Drive Dependent, (more than original ST-506/412 drives)
SEEK TIMES, TYPICAL
