DEC did sell a version of the BA23 that was intended to be used just as an expansion peripherals cabinet. You shouldn't have any problems putting HH devices in BA23 bays (so long as you have the appropriate interfaces to drive them) but you may need i.e. 3.5" to 5.25" bracket to attach to the BA23 sleds, and you'll have (cosmetic) blank space on top after putting a HH device in a FH bay. I imagine you'd have to make a special bracket to mount a TZ30/RX33 over-under in one of the 5.25" bays in the BA23 but it could certainly be done ... No such factory configuration exists AFAIK... I think the BA23 was fairly superseded by the S-box when those peripherals hit the market.
