DEC StorageWorks drive bay with 2 1Gb disks
Item # 2023433506

The SBB (Storageworks Building Blocks?) Modules like the RZ28 have a
suffix.. RZ28-VA or VW..

VA are Narrow ("8-bit").. VW is wide ("16-bit")

These BA353 cases are SCSI-2 and officially only support 5400 rpm 1 & 2
GBs.. probably because of cooling.. They are sort of useful though.

The RZ modules are factory formatted for Alpha, the SW modules come
formatted for Intel. I believe they are the exact same drives inside and
can be reformatted with no problems

Note.. this guy doesnt show the third bay.. some are configured for 2 SBB &
1 5.25 eg CDROM..  others come ready for 3 SBB
