I remember the Havant IBM Disk plant.
I went on a visit there once.
It was one enormous clean room.
The drives they made had a name - something like Eagle, Sparrow or Wren

Is there any country of origin on the 667? There was a division in
Havant that manufactured drives in this time frame, that IBM sold to
the plant managers, that is now Xyratex.
If memory serves, those series were made in several different places,
including California and Mexico. Probably one or two other places too.
