I've got the 501-1006 and a couple of vintage drives
which seem to work
fine. Just finding time to get it all going is the
main issue :)

I Could also do with a manual for the old monocrhrome
monitor (eg the
one that came with very early Sun's (Sun-1 / 2
vintage). I want to check
as much out on the monitor that I can before
Doing a power on.
