Adam,
	If you can distinguish the technical differences of ata and scsi
then you probably could determine from my post, if you read the rest of
it, that the drive is SCSI.  I said I was selling it because I can't
support SCSI, which is what the drive is.  The "docs" list both options of
the drive.  If you're still confounded, the drive is a SCSI3 drive and is
not ATA.  Please e-mail me PRIVATELY if you are interested or have
furthur comments.  Thanks.
