Sounds like the one I'm running NetBSD/VAX 1.1B on here.  It's an
H9642 cabinet with two BA23s mounted sideways, as you say, a TS05
9-track (front loading) above them, and an RA81 below.  The manual
calls it a MicroVAX II 630QE -- I've upgraded mine to a 650, though.

26" wide, 36" deep, 42" tall, weight 650 lb.  :-)
