Does anyone have an old Plus Development Hardcard 20
kicking around?
What does the pinout of the drive part look like? Maybe there's some
hope there...
I think there's more than one model of the Hardcard 20 out there...
ISTR older ones had an ST-412-like interface and drive, whereas I
scavenged one Hardcard 20 with an *XT* IDE (WD95028-X or similar)
drive.
I was able to migrate the drive from the Hardcard frame to a Commodore
PC-compatible (PC-III?) with no effort.
So at the very least, be sure what your Hardcard is doing before
trying to transplant drive mechs, etc.
