I have not tried using 2 RD5x drives in a BA23 because
the power supply
can't handle it according to the manuals.
I have a BA23-based home system with an RD54, and RD33 and an RX33.
I don't know if it stresses the power supply the way two RD5x series
drives would, but I know it also works solidly...
