I recently got hold of a diskdrive:

	Amcodyne Model 7110

A controllerboard for a DEC PDP Qbus is included. The drive seems to have
2 platters, 1 removable and 1 fixed. Formfactor is something like 8", capacity
something like 20Mb/platter

What I would like to know:
  - Actual drive parameters: #of cyl, sect/track, seek time, interface type
                             etc etc
  - What DEC drive does this disk emulate (RSX11M seems to understand it)

Any info is appreciated
