Lines: 12 It's probably been discussed here already, but I must have missed it. I am aware that that RD5[34] disks are Maxtor assemblies, that the RZ2[23] disks are Connor, but what about the new RZ24, and the RZ5[5-7] disks? I'm betting that these are also Maxtor, as DEC seems to have coincidentally (?) continued its RD 53,54 line as RZ 55,56,57, with the only diffierence being ST506 vs SCSI (5 1/4 " form factor, etc. . .) Also, does anybody know about DEC's DECstation PC line of disks and their manufacturer(s)? What would it take to mount a RZ56 SCSI disk (direct from its manufacturer) into a BA42 expansion box? Special brackets? I presume that the SCSI interface and power supply are standard (I was able to do something similar with a Fujitsu M2263S).
