VAX 4000-200 in BA215 chassis. Will NetBSD support the built-in DSSI disks if I install a KFQSA?

I know NetBSD does NOT support the SHAC DSSI controller on the KA660
CPU cards, but if I take a KFQSA controller from one of my other VAX,
can the chassis "internal" DSSI disks be disconnected and then
re-connected to the KFQSA card bypassing the SHAC chips on the CPU
card?

I've got a couple of VAX 4000-200 boxes, but they only run OpenVMS
now, but I'd like to install NetBSD on them.

has anyone tried this?
Happy 2024 everyone,
