ISTR it was tied into the floppy drive controller, and it has the 34 pin
header that matches?
No other identifying numbers, but I think it might be a DJ-20C. QIC-80
cartridge, maybe?
I'd just like to see if it works with my Linux box here or not. Might
just delegate to the junk Windoze box instead, if it does work.
Any answers? Point me in the right direction, even if it is to the
dumpster. LOL
There were two major versions of these drives. The earlier one had a 34
position card edge connector, and I believe can be connected to the floppy
controller with just a standard floppy cable (before the twist). The later
version of the drive uses a right angle header, and needs a special cable
that changes up the signal lines a little. If your drive is the later
type, I'll see if I can find my old drive to check that special cable.
