There were also plug compatible LCS unit made; UIUC's 360/75 had a 2Mb unit to supplement the 1Mb of standard core. Still there in 1981 when the /75 was finally decommissioned.... As I recall the LCS they had was from either Memorex or Ampex....

 Shelby provided the answer. But just for historical interest (if such
 exists here), the term was LCS (Large-Capacity Storage, though I've
 also heard Large-scale Core Storage). This was a separate stand-alone
 box, model 2361, with anywhere from 1MB to 8MB of core, addressable
 exactly like normal storage, but running much slower.
