Maxed out with 12 HDs and 8 Gig of RAM.
I installed Linux and did some Kernel compiling and benchmarking with the drives.

YW. When you are new to DEC related hardware it maybe a steep learning curve, but there are tons of documentation available.
Bitsavers is your friend f.e.
Hello folks,

If one would insert those packs into a drive, how are chances that heads are damaged ?
Has this been tested by someone ?
I have a few...
