I have a Digital RZ56 drive and a couple of Micropolis 1588 drives.
Is there any demand for these brick sized drives of cd-rom capacity, or
should I just recycle them?

I am always interested in drives like this. I suspect others are too.

Hi Stan
Some one on the vintage computing forums was looking for a <1GB drive for an old DEC
box. Certainly the VaxStation 3100 base model needs small disks like this.
Yes the wonderful SCSI2SD will work but real drives are often wanted.

Well, then. Time to put these drives in an enclosure to check them out.....
