I have Tru64 5.1 running here, checked if it has any additional or updated entries, but it uses exactly the same disktab file as posted for Digital Unix 4.0D.

Here's /etc/disktab from Digital Unix 4.0D, which has info about many of the RZ drives as well as some of the RA drives.

​Good point, but you might be able to start with something that has been around for a long time. 
4.X BSD has the disktab db in section 5 of the man pages, check out:  https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=disktab&sektion=5
Seems like that data has been vetted a bit (at least for systems from the late '70-early 2000's)Source for NET2  on Warren's archives take a look for usr/src/etc/etc.*/*tab*
The vax directory has: r[ab][68][01], rd53, rm[08][035], rp0[67]  plus a few more. They also have a few more manufacturers in other directories. It might be interesting to see simh use the same DB.
