[Ham-Computers] Odd 3.5" Drive.

[Ron Youvan]

> I have an external 3.5" "floppy" drive made by Oceanic America, FCC ID
> HFK3393A, drive name is Master-3A1.  The odd part is that it has a DB23 NOT
> 25 conector on a short cable and another DB23 connector on the back of the
> case with a 1/0 switch.  The inside end of the cable connects to a 24 pin
> header, only 23 pins are used.  The drive itself is a re-labeled typical IDE
> drive made by Teac.

> The 23 pin connector is throwing me off, not the typical DB15 or DB25.

> Any ideas what this external drive may have gone to?

   Are you positive it isn't a SCSI drive?  Does it have octal device
select jumpers or switch?
