I'm not sure if the hub is an RP04 style or RP03 style. Yes, the accessories say big
pack. Given that there is also a tool for looking at 5-ish platter packs, RP04 and later
(with the smaller tool used for RM03 packs) is plausible.
I remember seeing one of these in use, for inspection not cleaning. The only pack I ever
saw cleaned in the field was an 1311 pack that had been splashed by leaking hydraulic
fluid from the head actuator. Cleaned off fine with isopropyl alcohol.

I would agree that it is definitely for multi platter drives.

From looking at the accessories and the spindle, I believe that this is for examining
multi-platter packs such has those for RP03/4 and RP06 and the like. It?s a useful find
for folks who have those drives and packs and wish to actually use them. ;-)
