The following table shows the signal assignment and pin numbering for the
2 x 36-pin hard drive edge connector. Side A of the connector is the top
(component side) and Side B is the bottom (solder side).
This is a subset of the standard Micro
Channel slot (16-bit).

There are no reference designators silkscreened on the PCB.
Modifying 160MB SCSI Drive With ESDI PCB
Modifying a 160 MB SCSI Disk was only half way successful (took of the SCSI
PCB and hooked up the ESDI PCB from my bad 120 MB Drive). I can see the HD when
booting with the Refdisk, but I get all kinds of errors when trying to format
it.
The 160 operates with a different number of sectors IIRC. Only have the data
for the 80 and 160MB: 984 cylinders, 10 heads, 17 (80) and 34 (160) sectors. So
the 120 must have 26 sectors (25.5 arithmetically - but there are no half
cylinders ...). I think the 120MB controller cannot "fetch" a valid sector
start ... and therefore jumps out. The LLFORMAT routine does not go *that* deep
that it can write raw sectors on the media. That's usually the purpose of some
factory tools.
