Is there a controller to attach an RS64 disk to a
PDP-8? The only
controller for the RS64 I can find is the UNIBUS RC11. Thanks.
I never saw any reply, so I gather the answer is 'no'. I looked through the
stuff on BitSavers for a bunch of other machines (IIRC, PDP-9 and PDP-12
and maybe one more), didn't see anything.
The odd thing is that based on the RS64 manual cover/format, it dates to the
same time period as the early -11's; and that manual is very careful to
separate the drive info from the controller. Very strange that it wasn't
interfaced to something else (like an -8 or -9). Maybe there was at one point
a plan to do so, but plans changed?
I note that there is an RS32 - I onder if they are any relation?
