I'd think this is more of a danger with the RM05 or RP06, if you happen 
to have one located too close to your laundry area.

So has anybody come across any plausible stories about having to clean 
washing detergent out of free-standing pack-based disk drives?

This as opposed to the comparatively common case of having a badge on an 
actual dishwasher or refrigerator. I'm thinking of a pdp-11/23 badge on 
a dishwasher at a group house in Alston, MA for starters...
