What is this? AST 88 Mb drive

AST 88 Mb drive I picked up an external drive in a bunch of computer parts. Can anyone identify it? It looks like a Bernoulli or Syquest drive but is marked "AST Technologies" and "88 MB C". It's the same size as a Bernoulli Transportable drive and the cartridge looks like it is *almost* the same size as a Bernoulli 90 Mb (but it's not!) It has two 50 pin SCSI connectors on the back along with a socket for a power cord and two AC outlets. It included a SCSI cable that has a male DB-25 connctor on the other end. What kind of cartridge does this take? Is it worth bothering with? Joe
