I would like to upgrade my original SH204  (with 20 MByte Tandon 262) with
another drive.
As far as I understand the hostadapter inside the SH204 understands SCSI.
Therefore I would
like to connect it directly to a 'genuine' SCSI drive instead of putting another
MFM drive on the
Adaptec 4000 SCSI -> MFM controller.  
Does anybody has experience with this solution ? What sort of problems could I
run into ?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks					Matthias Heiden
