I have an RM03 pack somewhere. There probably
are a few places left that could read it. If it were an RA60 pack it would be a whole lot
more problematic, I suspect. Without an >old drive, how would you recover the data?
Spin table? Perhaps, if you can find, or reverse engineer, the format.
Do you assume the problem with RA60 disk packs to be more problematic because of a
smaller availability of systems with RA60 drives to read the packs compared to CDC 9762
/RM03 drives?
