You found Satan's (Santa's) Accounting Logs on disk! lol. Well, with track
666, nothing good would come from that, grin.
Possible that it may be to a proprietary setup for corporations? I heard
back in the late 80's a few companies were getting overly paranoid about
piracy / corporate espionage and hired a firm from CT to make a proprietary
removable disc drive and key system that would only operate if the two were
together and matched up. never actually saw it though, just rumors and
stories from old IBM contractors and the like.
