Hi Christian,
As others have indicated, the drive has an SMD interface.
FWIW, I have a drive which was working when I acquired it a number of years ago, along with a bunch
of disk packs and I have some emulex unibus disc controllers (SC31, SC72). If you are interested in
these items, I am looking to reduce my collection (I have loads of pdp11 hardware). Where are you
located? I am in NW Indiana...

Hello all,
we now have a RM03 drive, but are missing all the cables and the RH11 backplane, though I have the
cards.
Since the drive itself is a CDC 9762 I was wondering if I could ignore the Massbus adapter in the
drive cabinet and use the CDC as a "normal" SMD drive (at least it uses the standard 60+26 pin
cables).
There are no service manuals/schematics of the drive itself, so I can't look there. And all I
could find on the net were discussions of using the Massbus adapter for normal SMD drives but in
my case, I don't want Massbus at all.
