The Megafile series (produced by Atari) is based on RLL (MFM) Hard Disk, the MFM technology today has become obsolete.
The system includes the Hard Disk (Seagate ST-157R), controller RLL (MFM) 32D5321 and the power supply. The Megafile was connected to the host through the door ACSI, ACSI is Atari’s proprietary hard drive connector. It is similar to SCSI which was standardized later, but not directly compatible.
The other door instead allows you to connect other devices (eg. other Megafile).

The Atari SM-124 is a high-resolution monochrome monitor designed to be used with the ST series of computers. It is capable of 640×400 resolution at 72Hz in black and white and has a very sharp picture, though the actual viewing area onscreen is quite small, a large black border of about .5 inches or more surrounding the entire screen.
For serious work on the ST, including MIDI sequencing, telecomunications, word processing, etc. the SM-124 is a much nicer monitor than it’s color counterpart

The Mega ST was Atari’s first major enhancement to the ST line of computers. With 1MB or 4MB memory (expandable with add-on cards), built in BLITTER graphics chip, and MegaBUS expansion Slot all packaged into a nice clean pizza-box case the ST line of computers received a boost in power, expandability and professional looks.
Atari was moving forward in the right direction. Also introduced along with the Mega ST line was Atari’s direction into the desktop publishing field.
Atari introduced the SLM804 Laser Printer which attached to the Atari DMA interface port and also the desktop publishing package. Also introduced was the Atari Megafile hard drive system to add stackable harddrive modules onto the Mega ST.

This is the program QL Toolkit for the Sinclair QL home computer written by Tony Tebby (the author of the QDOS and SMSQ/e operating systems) and published by Sinclair on their Silver Label.
QL Toolkit offered a lot of facilities which Tony had originally devised for the original QL QDOS operating system, but which were never released. It included commands to control jobs, improvements to SAVE and COPY commands, wildcard file handling, and much more.
It also contains a host of example SuperBASIC programs on the microdrive cartridges. It was later to become Toolkit II (or Super Toolkit) which was recognised as the standard toolkit upgrade to the Sinclair QL Home Computer.
