Hi, net.

A friend of mine has bought, dirt cheap, an old hulk of a hard disk.
It was made by Micropolis, sometime ago.  The trouble is that he has
absolutely no stats on the thing - no # of cylinders, # of heads, no
nothing.

He does have Some data - the serial numbers and model numbers of the
hard drive unit and the entire case with the power supply.  If anyone
has seen or heard of a drive with the following numbers, please report
them immediately to the nearest police station.  A reward is pending.

	Case		Model number	1263 I AA
			Serial number	1033009
			Part number	900222-13A

	Hard drive	Model number	God Only Knows
			Serial number	1077
			Part number	100450-063
			Revision number	111

If you can recognize this unit on sight, please E-Mail to me.  We
need to know the capacity - number of heads/cylinders.  It seems to
have a 50-pin connector which we have hooked up to a SCSI interface
without causing sparks, so we can assume it's SCSI, or at least close.

Please help!

--Frank
