Sorry, the A2090 is *NOT* ST-412 compatible.

The major difference between ST-506 and ST-412 is that ST-506 supports only
8 heads (such as the older WD1010 controllers) and that ST-412 supports 16
heads.

The A2090 supports only 8 heads, thus is ST-506 compatible.

The Seagate ST-251 drive has 6 heads and will function with either an ST-506
or ST-412 compatible controller.
