If you have a current working version of OpenServer, and the old hard drive
is compatible with current hardware, you can probably mount it to read the
data. If it's Really Old(tm) (e.g. Xenix), you will have to run ``mkdev
xenix'' first to implement Xenix file system support.
Most (all) of the old SCO systems we used had SCSI hard drives, and the
hard disks are easy to mount, although it might require some digging to get
cabling to connect to old SCSI-I fifty pin cables.
