That is an IBM 3330-1 (or maybe -2) HDA assembly (or a generic copy from STK/StorageTek)... last time I had my hands on one was about 1985.

I have to correct myself , that’s a 3340 which had a removable head of string and then the rest of the string was 3350... That HDA doesn’t have enough platters for a 3330.

It was considered “old” in 1985. That’s ‘70’s tech there. First generation hard-disk. What was the capacity of a stack like that? About 1 MB?
