Hi all,
I would like to connect a Plessey disk drive to a PDP11 RK11-D controller.
The drive has a fixed platter and a removable platter, compatible to RK05 I
believe, and these numbers on it:
Plessey 3468-0231
PMDD/11B
700540-200217D
If this is the one I'm thinking you have, it is more like an RL02,
RK05s are front-loading. This is the "take the bottom off the
pack, put it on the spindle, and put the bottom over the top of the
pack" type... no?
If so, I belive I have the service docs on it... must wait to get
home tonite to see for sure. I gave a PDP 11/04 system to a
Listmember which had a pair of these attached. I have written him
offering copies of these dosc but so far only silence has returned to
me.....
HINT HINT you know who you are.
Anyway..
(snip)
Question: Would anyone have a maintenance manual for the Plessey drive
available ? Short of that, maybe the pinout of the connector, so that I can
make the cable ?
I can copy this as well for any others with the drive in
question... let me know. I will post the exact model the docs are
for this evening.
Cheers
John
