Our CE remove the fiber card, though we still have it.  We could hook it up
to the old 510 expansion tower if we wanted.  I have that in my "Monster
Garage" of spare parts.  Lets see, a model 400 with side car attached to a
old 720 system unit converted to migration tower, attached to an old 510
expansion tower with  a top hat of 16 4 gig drive.  2 drives in the main
unit, 8 in the side car, 30 in the migration tower and 16 in the 510
expansion = 56 drives.  Full SPD with FSIOP's, IPCS, Comm and Twinax, Tape
Controller and DASD controller.  Full migration tower with twinax, comm, 2
ethernet, and 2 dasd controllers.  This would hook up tons of devices to a
very slow processor.  Any one know of a way to exceed the 192 meg memory
limit?

A monster in the planning

When you say "remove the HSL loop" do you mean just not use it?  It would be
ok to leave the ports on the back of the machine still though, right?

Wanting to try frankenseriesing this thing up to a 720 - I don't see any
reason why it WOULDN'T work, because just because you have HSL available
shouldn't mean you have to use it.

Logic would lead me to believe that - logic has been wrong before.
