be less than that to be sufficient, maybe +18 or +15 to kick the regulator

I was feeling lucky, so I tried feeding it 24V on the pin leading to the
12V regulator. No smoke, all voltages looked rational on the board and
the unit started working properly :-).
Definitely a piece of information for the archives. First time I've seen
that particular PC-ish Molex connector used for anything other than
+5-GND-+12.
Now, if I could only figure out the proper jumpering to keep the drive
motor off until selected... There seems to be virtually no information
available on this unit. Best I can determine, it was an OEM part used by
GE medical imaging equipment.
