Data a single is 25-pin cable, but I have two drives.
so ideally need
two. Command is a pair of cables, one 25-pin and the other 37-pin. I
don't know if the pins are straight through or whether they do any
swapping from one end to the other.

Liam, he's looking for SMD, which need a Bus and Radial.? One Bus can
daisy chain from drive to drive, and us usually 60 pin.? The radial RF
cables are usually 26 pin ribbon.? A separate cable from the controller
to each drive is required to hook up the system.
You're thinking about the 50 pin D-sub that went to the older deskside
bricks for workstations.
thanks
Jim
