They are certainly used with the 11/35 and 11/40. Also with the 11/05 and 11/10, I think the 11/20 has a slot for them (that's what the labels in the etch of a genuine KM11 seem to be for) and the 11/45. Possibly other Unibus processors AFAIK they are not used with RK05 drives, but are used with both types of Unibus controller for same (RK11-C and RK11-D). And the RK11 of course. Possibly other things, but those are the ones I've come across. > > Speaking of RX01's, does anyone out there have a spare front bezel for the > RX01 > that they'd be willing to part with? > I have a working RX01 on my 8/e system (both drives good, amazingly) but the > bezel was missing when I got it. > It'd be nice to have, as it looks rather dumpy in the rack with the rest of > the system. Pity you're not in the UK. I have a spare RX02 that I don't really need... I don't want to strip it for parts but I could be convince to part with the complete thing. -tony
