Don't forget about the fact that the last drive on the controller cable
should be terminated with a little resistor pack. Without it a lot of
these drives/controllers won't work. The terminator is often inserted
on the underside or near the power connector/controller pinout.

least that's the only one besides the ST412 (10mb) I've ever seen one with.
