Hardrive. Its sitting here in front of me, hoping it can be hooked up to my ST. Well my questions are. 1) Does anybody know anything about Rodime 21meg HD model# RO204?? 2) It has a card edge connector. One has 10 contacts, the other part has 17 contacts, these two are separated by about a 1/2 inch. Is this standar ST506?? or SCSI or ESDI. 3) If it is ST506, I am under the impression I can use Adaptecs 4070 or 4000a controllers+host adaptor. can I do this for the others? I mean if it is SCSI or ESDI, do I just need a Host Adaptor?? or do I still need a controller. 4) I bought a case and power supply so thats no problem but does the adaptor come with a DMA cable? 5) Theres a wire trailing off this behemoth, is this a grounding wire?? thanks to everyone who can help me.. if possible e-mail me becuase, reading 30+ articles everyday, I tend to skip reading this newsgroup sometimes. some of the wierd routes you can get to me by. 301-467-4223 (seems reliable) ins_bac@jhunix.UUCP ins_bac@jhunix.HCF.JHU.EDU .. !uunet!mimsy!aplcen!jhunix!ins_bac thanks again Ajay Choudhri
