BTW: on Claudes page there is a nice picture titled:
"Hard Disk rack and several disks in there...no idea on the model..."

To me it looks a bit like an IBM 1301 Disk drive ... remember ?
The first ever commercial disk unit ... whooping 280.000.000 characters
and up to 3 access arms, the size of an industrial robot :))
