OK Since a couple of other people put up their wish
list, I'll do mine.
If it's an RLV11, there's no big deal - it's a BC08 to the bracket,
and a transition header, just like the ones on the back of the RL01/RL02
drives. If you don't have one with the controller, you can get one
1 RLV21 controller
Possibly 2. For RL01/RL02
drives.
I think he meant RLV11 or RLV12, but I would like to have one for my RL02
sitting in my bedroom. A cable to go from the drive to the controller
would also be nice, but not necessarily needed. from the back of a dead drive.
ISTR the RLV12 has a custom cable from the Berg end to the RL01/RL02
end. It _may_ be the same arrangement; it may not. It's been so long,
I forget. I just remember using a custom cable from the back of our
MicroVAX to the first drive, and an RL-11-style arrangement when I had
an RLV12 at home.
A piece of QBUS backplane would be nice, if availble,
along with an
extension cable (and terminator...) Especially necessary if the RLV11/12
expects a Q/CD instead of a Q/Q backplane.
The RLV11 needs a pair of Q/CD slots; the RLV12 fits into a single quad-
height Q/Q slot and works on 18-bit _and_ 22-bit machines.
