Jim, thanks! I called Kierulff and talked to Michelle. They have the
WD1003A-SCS for $194 and the WD1002-27X FOO22, which I did not get a price for.
The 27X is a 2,7 run-length-limited controller, giving 50% more disk space than
standard MFM controllers. I asked her to research Western Digital and Emulex'
offerings and call me back. Specifically asked her to look into ERLL
controllers, and also find out what drive size limitations, if any, the
controllers had. (A comment she made about the 27X made it sound like it might
only support 10, 20 & 30MB drives, which would blow it for me…) – Bela
