[You magically feel teleported back to the days of '77... :-)]

I was wondering if perhaps someone, somewhere, might have a
Hardware Maintenance Manual for a CDC 9762 Storage Module Drive
(SMD), Release BJ7A2 available... (I have a set of manuals for
the BK5XX release, but unfortunately they doesn't seem to be
compatible...) I need to find out how the external connector is
wired so that I can create a cable that will work with our
XyLogics Xy450 controller...

(I know, I know... this drive is old, slow, and requires too much service....
But if I get it to work then I could always us it as a /tmp or swap drive
until it dies... :-) And we have a number of disk packs just laying around
for it too...)
