My 9000/382 came with an original drive but it was dead. I think I replaced
it with a 68-pin drive with a 68-pin male - 50-pin male adapter. I'll have
to open it up and check. Fortunately I had the original drive carrier to
reuse.

It also came with a SCSI floppy drive. Don't think I ever got around to
testing that.
