That expansion case was kind of an interesting engineering solution. Because what it contained was two expansion card slots, like the ones rear left in the IBM PC. In order to put a hard drive in this computer, you had to buy one that communicated over an expansion card connector. Not over the drive connectors on the motherboard, where the floppies connected. The CPU itself sat on top of the case. #retrocomputing
