Perhaps. Large RD-series drives are somewhat rare these days.

The shipping will probably be equal to or in excess of the value of the
bare CPU. Not necessarily so for an RD54. Memory (as someone already
pointed out) is another gotcha. I have more than one CPU, but not a
single memory card over 4MB (and only one ethernet module). The uVAX
MMJ adapter is also somewhat hard to find unless you get it with the
computer (it fits over the DA15/DE9 and give you three serial ports
from the mouse/keyboard/console ports)
If all you want is a disk formatter, though, a uVAX-2000 with no
ethernet, 4MB of RAM and no disk should be cheap.
