In case it's useful, I have a controller card out of an external
dual HD that sounds very similar, but made by Quality Computer
Services in Metuchen, NJ.
It has an N8X300I and a bunch of WD1100V series chips, all
socketed, and a 40 pin interface connector (as well as the
three HD connectors of course).

The WD1001 is a board using the WD 1100 chipset supported with an
8x300/305-type microcontroller.

The WD 1001-55 (the "BIG" version) had four data cable connectors, IIRC. In
fact, it didn't look very different from the 1000-55 at all. Both of those
boards used the 8X300/305 (depending on version) and the WD1100 chipset. I
had the datasheet for that board in my hands less than two hours ago, but
don't now remember where ... <sigh> another senior moment, I guess. The
small versions (1000-05, etc) used the WD1010 chip and a couple of others.
They do seem to be pretty much interchangeable, though. My own WD 1000-55
board had a 50-pin connector rather than a 40-pin host connector. The extra
signals were just ground and power, though. The ones I've kept only have the
40-pin host connector, which makes them all compatible at the interface.
