Reading the ad it sounds more like a single HD floppy drive with something like a CD changer mechanism in front of it. Seems a little "optimistic" to describe it as hard disk fast, but I suppose technically an HD floppy's data rate (if formatted at a 1:1 interleave) is in the ballpark of a really old MFM hard drive with a 6:1 interleave XEBEC or similar controller. I am curious how fast it could switch disks and if a file could span floppies.
