Nope I have no idea of the type of drives that are installed in there.
If you salvage it I would be interested in some parts (one of the keyboard
latches on mine is broken and I would like to replace it)
Let me know.
Thanks.

Francois,
Well I got the Osborne. It turns out that the dealer had to move and had
to get rid of a bunch of stuff so he was a lot more reasonable on his
prices. I haven't had time to do anything with it yet. I probably won't
for a few days. BTW Do you know what kind on drives are in there? They
look like they might be some of the old Shugart SA 400s. If so I can
probably use them to restore my old Altair. It has a disk controller for
the SA 400s but the drives are long gone.
