   It's just a dual disk drive, nothing else. It has single sided drives
in it. The capacity depends on what machine you use it with, but generally
about 270K per drive (formatted). It has a HP-IB interface and can be used
with a WIDE variety of HP computers, calculators and test equipment. I
just bought one on auction web for $12.00.

    TEC is Tokyo Electric Company. They build a lot of cash registers.
Look in the yellow pages for a TEC dealer they're everywhere. I had a TEC
daisy wheel printer. It worked fine on my PC and it looked like it was
built to last forever.

    It's probably built by Black Box. They built all kinds on breakout boxs
and the like.
