I have both types. AFAIK, the older drives did _not_ have the
access panel, and this goes double for RL01 drives (of which I
have several, since they were "cheap"* when I was into collecting

shipping. :-( During the same timeframe, RL02 drives were still
current and selling new for well over $1,000 USD.
