There is nothing special about the RX180.  It's only a DEC styled box 
with a power supply and two drives. 

Yes, any system.  Any controller.  The drives are generic 40tr 5.25" 
single sided and work ad single, double density as well as hard sector.

I've used them with Robin, NorthStar*, TRS80, AmproLB, homebrew (765based)
and PCs.
