Interesting! Were they built as IDE drives from the ground up, or were they
ST506/412 types with an additional board grafted on doing the interface

Regarding your "IDE HDDs were extremely
rare" comment, did *anyone*
other than Quantum release an IDE drive in that 5.25" form factor? I
can't think of any, everything else was 3.5", although some early
vendor's drives were the same height as a "half height" 5.25" drive.
CDC 94208-51, 62, -75. The -51 is Compaq drive type 17.
