| | |
| The RL02 is the high-density version of the [[RL01 disk drive|RL01]] [[disk|disk drive]], with twice as many tracks per surface, introduced in 1978 by [[Digital Equipment Corporation|DEC]].
| |
| | |
| The [[QBUS]] controllers are the [[RLV11]] and [[RLV12]], the latter being the [[QBUS|Q22]] version.

| |
| | |
| Reinhard Heuberger has created an open source emulator for the RL02 (and RL01) using a Terasic DE0-Nano Altera Cyclone IV FPGA board, extended with necessary interfacing hardware and an SD card slot. The emulator can be used with a real PDP-11, for example.
