Oh, the NEC Multispin 4x may just work.   I use these.   You will have to
set one of the dip switches that changes it from 2048 bytes to 512

switch.

I love the old NEC Mulitspin's, I have an 8x caddy drive in my PDP-11.   They're the only non-DEC drives I've been able to find that works with some of my older DEC gear.
