The scsi was on an Europe format card connected to the commodore bus via a
din-41612 adapter.
The board had a 6522 to communicate to the hard disk and a boot prom located
in $9000

The network had a server a cbm8096 board mounted in an industrial box.
The server could be connected to 16 workstations and share the hard disk
Connected to the server

The dos was mem/dos 

The communication was assured by a Motorola 6854 high speed differential
serial ports
Something like 256kbis or 512 kbits.

The system was sold with a CII Cynthia D140 hard disk
10 Mb fix + 10 Mb removable 10" cartridge.


I place the eprom on my website tomorrow and I send you the links.

These sound interesting.  What sort of network?  IEEE-488 (shared
drives, etc)?  Proprietary hardware?

I'd also be curious about what sort of SCSI interfaces were available
for PETs.  One could rather "trivially" hang a 53C80 in some corner of
the memory map and write some driver code, but did anyone actually
make a commercial product for the PET like that?
