yeah, it is the one connected to my sunvideo card (composite video)

I have the dmanedest time finding docco and peripherals these
days. You'd think you'd find the disk drives, at least. and a basic
manual....

I have an HPIB SBUS card, but don't have any driver packages to make it
do anything. that would probably suffice as a mass storage system,
though.....288GB for the 86....
