It's probably a P3...P5 board with the only modification probably being the replacement of the WD1010 chip into a WD2010 chip.  The unit is complete with a 40MB hard drive, a 2-port serial card, probably with some memory, and an Ethernet/10MB card.  This was my backup unit, so while it was used, it's still in pretty good condition for a machine of this age.
> i) Maxtor XT2190 hard drive.  190Mb - the absolute biggest that the 3B1 could be built to handle, provided you upgraded the WD1010 chip.  The unit still has the face plate, so it can be used either internally (if you remove it) or externally in a separate chassis.  This can also be used in a 3B2/300-310-400 if you want.
