  You're right - it is a BA213.  The BA123 was the "World Box" and the 213 is the "Skunk Box" (aka S-Box).  The 123 held RDxx drives and the 213 held RAxx drives.  My memory is getting a little dyslexic apparently.  Sorry.

  And yes, the 11/53 (KDJ11-SD) came with S-Box handles.  See the pictures.  

  BTW, the Golden Retriever is not a DEC product :)
