And last but not least, the RA81 type drives probably
also used an MSCP

Right. For completeness, the UNIBUS controller for RA type disks is the
UDA-50, and KDA-50 is for Qbus. Both can handle four drives, with a
separate cable running from the controller to each drive in a star
configuration. Other controllers are for BI bus, for use in a HSC50 etc.
The disk interface is called SDI (depending on where you look it up,
"Standard Disk Interface" or "Serial Disk Interconnect"), usually
thick
black cables with a rectangular cross-section.
