EDSI and SCSI  controllers for Qbus have been high for a while since MFM 
drives
are getting very scarce and expensive.

The upside is EDSI and scsi drives are very cheap to near free so the 
cost of the controller
being high is less painful..  also scsi controllers can have more 
drives.. also nice.
