Sergio,

I made good experience with the SRQD11 Controller for ST506 (=MFM) disks made by the Australian Webster Computer Corporation. 

It can interface one disk (genuine DEC RDs or any other MFMs) to your PDP-11 or MicroVAX without any additional boards or panels.

Mine has been running as well in my PDP-11/03 [RT-11] as in my MicroVAX I [VMS], which is VERY picky about disk controllers.

Another good choice would be an Emulex QD21 for ESDI disks or even an Emulex UC07 for SCSI disks (if you find one).
