True, however SIMH has to write things to a

I thought the SIMH representation of an MSCP disk was just a linear array
of 512-byte blocks, from block 0 to block n-1, in which case, it's still
not at all surprising that any RQDXn, or any other MSCP disk with the
standard Unibus/Qbus MSCP port interface would "just work".
If I'm wrong about how the disk is represented by SIMH, then maybe it could
be more surprising.
