 Some Conner drives have a built in translation table, and I think that
 includes the 3044.  On a PC, a type 17 (40 MB, can't remember the
 details) is usually the type that was used with the 40 MB drives.  I
 don't have it handy now, but Conner also has/had the data sheets on most
 of their drives online, and will include the appropriate translations
 that can be used with the drive. 
I've already posted the translated parameter, must have crossed in the mail.
Conner is owned by Seagate now and all Seagate and Conner spec sheets can be
found at

Nice bookmark to have for those that get lots of drives to test and need
instant jumper and parameter info.
