It is possible I have them, I will ahve to check. I have 2 of these 
machines, one with an 11/03 processor and dual floppy drives running 
whatever the single-taksing OS was called, and one with a 11/23 procesor 
and a (8") hard drive running TNIX. I know I got some disks with them, 
but I can't erememebr if any were for TNIX

The 8" winchester machines have a Micropolis 1203 drive with the standard 
Micropolis controller board on top. The host interface for that is not 
SASI (AFAIK), but it is documented in the Micropolis documentation. So it 
may be possible ot image that drive too.
