2022年1月21日 · The RX01/RX02 series of DEC Floppy Disk Systems, provided 8 inch diskette storage for various Digital Equipment platforms. Both were standalone systems which communicated serially with a PDP processor.

The RX01 and RX02 floppy drives were DEC's first floppy drives, and were used on a number of computers, such as the PDP-8, PDP-11, and VAX-11/780. They used 8" floppies, compatible with the IBM 3740 floppy drive; the media were single-sided, single-density, floppies, which came pre …

rx02_emulator is a hardware/software emulation of a DEC RX02 (or RX01) dual 8" floppy disk drive. The software runs on an Arduino Mega2560 processor board with a custom hardware interface shield that maps a dozen or so digital port bits to …

The RX02 was a double capacity version around 1978. The RX02 double density drive stored 256k words or 512k bytes on a disk. It can also emulate the earlier RX01 drive storing 128k words or 256k bytes. The PDP-8 normally used a RX01 or RX02 in RX01 mode.

How can I get the greaseweazle to put a low level dec.rx01 or dec.rx02 low level format on a disk? Do I need to take a formatted disk and read it and then write it back to the second disk?

DEC RX01 and RX02 sector image - used for 8-inch disks specifically using the DEC-manufactured drives. While 8-inch drives made by other manufacturers were similar to later 3.5- and 5.25-inch successors, the DEC models worked specifically with PDP machines and were more idiosyncratic in nature.
