I found that url a few weeks ago when I did my initial search on the 1400,
but I didn't realize you helped write it. That FAQ and some other bits I
found on the web have been my primary source of information so far. Thanks
for taking the time to help write it :)

Who maintains the FAQ now? I may have some info from this 1400 to help add
to the 1000 series section.

Will do. Thanks for the heads up.

A little digging on Data Systems Design/Qualogy turned up the name Paul
Bonderson. According to the page I found here (and a few others):
http://www.brocade.com/brocdoc/company_info/Bio_Details.jsp?where=exec&id=1012009638
he was over the group who designed the ST-506 interface boards. Does
anyone here know him or think contacting him would be worthwhile?
