THe R400x is a storage expansion chassis designed to hook up to fairly recent
VAX systems... The MVax 3400 and VAX 4000 (not VaxStation) series comes to
mind. The connection is for a DSSI (Digital Storage Systems Interconnect,
IIRC), not SCSI..... RF30 drives are 150 MB; I would guess the RF31's are
around 300MB. The TF85 is either a 2.6 or 6 GB (IIRC) DLT drive....

I picked up one of these chassis intending to use it with my MV3400; now all I
need is the DSSI cable to go to the MV3400, and some ISE carriers (Drive
mounting and connection hardware) to plug it all in....
