The SASI interface board of the DISKSERVER interfaces to the XEBEC S1410 SASI controller. The controller is capable of driving two ST506 hard disks.

Unfortunately our first ST506 proved to be dead-on-arrival, but we never got around to replacing it because the second one was more then sufficient for our needs (our floppy disks could store only 386 KB of user data; the single hard disk provided approximately 5 MB).
