It seems to be a box full of SCSI controllers... and the heading says
they are all 8-bit channels.

Is the listing incorrect, or is this a version for running 8 narrow SCSI
drives?

With this unit, then you still seem to need another cabinet for the
drives.

I'd like something like this, but with the drives and controller in a
single unit, that appears to my host as a SCSI chain.
