exactly what you'd expect a 34 pin connector on a disk controller to be
-- namely a SA400-compatible disk drive bus. The hardware can handle up
If the processor board is left out of the TF-20 you could use the drives
as extra drives on a QX-10. Some more info on the TF-20 and HX-20 Disk
basic can be learned from the User manual:

The CP/M like OS in the TF-20 probably doesn't support the extra drives
as the official way to connect more drives is daisy chaining another
TF-20 to the first one.
