I have.  It is bigger than a 5071A Frequency Standards :-).

: The 5334 doesn't have a fan.  It's much easier to find on eBay.

heh.  The fan on the unit that I use is loud.

: The 5334 blurb says 2 ns, 200 ps with averaging.
: The 5370 blurb says 20 ps single shot.

The 20ps spec would explain why we keep it around...
