What size motor was typically used in a 14-in fixed
drive, and what
sort of mechanical interface did a disk pack have with the spindle or
hub? I haven't been able to find any really clear pictures or
diagrams of the mechanics of such units.
The RK05 is a single platter 14" drive with the platter magnetically held on
the spindle.
Pictures here.
