Indeed... I have a working RA81 in a rack next to the 8200. I have
a probably-defective RA81 on the floor next to it (have been playing
with the internal serial diagnostic connector and I think the
replacement HDA is dead). I also have an RA81 in storage. Fortunately,
I have some smaller stuff, too - an MBA ESDI<->SDI box with a pair of
1.2GB ESDI disks, and a couple of RA70s.

My goal is to shed all but one RA81 and keep the 5.25" drives.
