"System Technology Associates"? SDI-ESDI adapter

[Doc Shipley]

   I'm sitting on a pair of half-wide rackmount storage devices 
silk-screened "RA 8" and "System Technology Associates" on front. 
Standard buttons - Write-Protect, Fault, A, B, on the front panel and an 
LED readout.  3 characters, I think.  There's a Control Data Corp label 
on top of the box, but the model label on the side is STA.  Model RA8-1100.

   Open PSU inside, and a logic board that converts the SDI I/O to talk 
to 2 Maxtor XT-8760-E ESDI drives.

   I can't find any mention of these puppies on Google.  STA is 
apparently still operating as an HP VAR, but their site is less than 
useless.

   So, has anybody ever seen one?
