I am wondering if I have racked my 11/24 correctly.
As you can see here:
https://robs-old-computers.com/2022/02/10/pdp-11-24-progress/ I have put the
CPU at the top and the two RL02 drives underneath.
The problem is that the CPU enclosure catches on the RL02 underneath. There
is a bit of pl
The conventional mounting for RL02 drives in a corporate cabinet puts one at
the top with the 6U CPU in the middle *but* that assumes that you have a
corporate cabinet designed for that purpose -- in which case the top is
missing so that the RL02 disk-pack can be directly accessed, and there is a

When I had a 11/24 it was in the wider cabinet (small panel to allow access to
terminal cables and such)
the cpu box was in the middle, with drive '1' on top.

Yes, it does. I toggled in the following program:

A top-mount corporate cabinet looks like this:

front-bar in the photo is over the 1U strengthener that braces the upper
portion of the rack ... since there is no brace at the top (as yours has).
Your cabinet will work fine; in my

Hi
 Is the correct setting:
  1. DS1 on the RD31 and the RX50's move up to DU1 and DU2.
  2. DS3 on the RD31 and the RX50's are DU0 and DU1
I've tried both and it still tries to access the RD31 and the RX50 at
the same time.
Its on a standrd BA23
