Nope. Those are different drives. Mine has 2 *physical* RK05 drive IDs

Uh, well, you are describing the top loader drive that uses IBM 5440 style cartridges, i.e. physically like the RL01 cartridges. Something completely different from what we are talking about. This thread is about 2315 type cartridges for front loading drives ;-)
Of course, your drive has twice the capacity of an RK05 drive.
