A RM05 drive or a RK05 drive. ;-)
The more important question is what machine and OS was used to write
the disk packs? The RK05 needs a UNIBUS or OMNIBUS controller, so at
least PDP-8, PDP-11 or a VAX comes in question. The RM05 is a MASSBUS
drive. MASSBUS (e.g. via a UNIBUS - MASSBUS controller) can be found
on larger PDP-11s, VAXen and PDP-10 / DECSYSTEM 10 / 20 machines.
