The best use for the SASI bus was for multiple controller cards. Downstairs
I have a Charles River Data Systems Universe system that has an Archive
tape Controller and a Sysgen SMD controller chained on the SASI bus. Other
CRDS systems also used OMTI 20D MFM and floppy controllers and Ciprico 9 track
tape controllers.

The system that I have supports SASI and SCSI1 on the same bus.
