I have a seagate ST-506 40MB 1/2 height internal hard disk (28ms access
time) that I would like to use with my AT clone. Is this possible? From
what I have seen, the Western Digital HC-WES-1002-WX1 or HC-WES-WD-WX2
controllers both support the ST-506. However, both of these controllers
are MFM compatible for XTs. Can I purchase an AT compatible controller
and use it with this drive in my AT clone? For example, the HC-WES-1003-RA2
or the HC-WES-1003-RAH are both RLL compatible for ATs. Can I purchase
either of these controllers and use them with the ST-506? Also, is the
HC-WES-1003-WAH an RLL controller? Can I use this controller with my
ST-506 in my AT clone?
Thanks in advance for any help. Marc
