In the "old" days, such as the 1970's, pretty much any
DEC-manufactured peripheral was supplied as a bunch of cards

slots, I think. A couple double-wide slots were for the
Unibus in and out connectors.
There were plenty of 9-slot system unit peripherals, but there were
also 4-slot system unit peripherals in the early days.
Yes, you certainly are correct. It has been SUCH a long
time since I worked on any Unibus systems...
