The Xebec 1410 and 1410a were relatively common "bridge" boards that made 
an MFM drive look like a SASI device.

It shouldn't be too difficult to find an MFM drive unless they've all been 
grabbed up by the **L00K**, ooooh, wow, **RARE** eBay shysters - err - 
sellers.

If you have any interest in selling or trading those boards, please ping 
me in private e-mail?
