Actually, it is 1 disk (small SCSI) per 8 nodes.

The smallest divisable unit of a T-Series (a T-10) consists of 8 vector
boards (INMOS T414's with Weitek VPU's) and 1 system board (INMOS T414,
no VPU, 2 UARTs and a disk)

All nodes have 1 MB of memory.

...and in actuality, multiple modules (ie T-10's) are actually hooked
up as rings of 3-cubes...
