the controller into the drive, but it is not ATA (AT-Attachment) IDE.

The IBM PS/2 Hardware Interface TechRef contains a pinout of the hard

I guess you could call it 'IDE', but it's not the same interface as is
used on more normal PCs. I have a 5870-121...with... a 120M ESDI drive...
Are you sure the drive is ESDI? I think the model 70 shipped with an
IDE drive.
