  This is my PDP11/23+ still waiting to be taken away. Now it is home.
The harddrive has been removed. And all the sticker as well.

  This is the Ampex DFR-996 80MByte harddisk + 16MByte removable disk drive. It doesn't work well at the moment...

  On this picture they are really dirty. Could clean the black things away. But the grey thing in the upper left corner did not go away.

  Ruined disk pack. You can see these little black spots. I don't know what it is. But it is soft. And I found it on other disks - without scratches. Seems to be same stuff that I cleaned from the heads. Any idea?

  That's my Emulex controller for the SMD disk. All that stuff behaves strangely :-(

  That must be the type plate of the controller.
