  Yes, Q540.

  Just a nit...the RD32 is an ST251...not a -1 model. The ST251 had
an average access time of 40ms (if memory serves) and the ST251-1 was
28.5ms. An easy performance upgrade for RD32-based systems is to
replace the DEC-badged Seagate ST251 with an ST251-1...the controller
won't know the difference...but the user will! :-)
