The 'sc' controller is a non DMA capable collection of chips.
Der Mouse had a partial driver written, but did not have the time

If anyone is interested in working on a driver, there are two

Another option might be a SMD controller - I have a spare
controller and a few drives, only shipping them might be a
problem :)
