I just picked up a Qualstar 1260. Can anyone
tell me anything about it?
What kind of interface/controller does it need? It has an interface cable
with a male D-subminiture connector with 62 pins in three rows.
I have a 1260 also; it is a 1600/6250bpi drive. They're not exactly
fast, but are nice and compact.
It has a Pertec formatted interface. The cable on it was probably for
an Overland Data controller; if you remove the cover plate the cable goes
through you'll see that it terminates at two 50 (I think) pin connectors
in the drive. Those use the standard Pertec pinout.
