Couldn't tell from that very limited pic the poster presented.
It looked just like the controller I had with my 2088 Bridgeboard
for HD access.

Don't know what use it would be today though, as you say, a good
"coaster" ;-)  If it's anything like the original Advantage controller
you can't put anything bigger than 540Mb on it and don't even think
about a CDROM.
