Thanks for the info. As far as I've been able to find out, which is lillte
more than speculation, I'm afraid, these "MITS Hard Disk Controller" boxes
were just prepared for trade shows and demos and were never mass-produced.
Since I can convert them into something useful without damaging them in any
way, I'll go ahead and do that. It would appear there were fewer than half
a dozen of these made, and they were never mmass-marketed.
