Jerome Fine replies:
Which operating system had the modified drivers? I use RT-11
and DEC never bothered to write a driver for an RX03.

There are controllers available for the DSD-880 which interface
on the Qbus for both the RX03 and the 8" hard drive. Unfortunately,
the current hardware set-up handles only ONE RX03 in addition
to the 8" hard drive.
