I don't have a schematic in front of me but the 4869 has it's own internal
power supply.
Anyway, I
can't get it to work properly. It is probably a 360K drive

and my PC (Philips 386SX AT clone) boots normally
with this type of drive
set
in the backup RAM.
It was made to work with the XT, plugging into a special port on the disk

Might be....there is also a 1.2mb version.
