ST125 is a 20MB 3.5" hard drive made by Seagate. It has a faster access time than ST225 does, and it is much quieter. ST125 has appeared in computer market for more than a year, and a number of micro-computer integrators have been using ST125 in their products.

It's a 3.5" 20Mb drive. Along with the ST138, and ST157 and others too. These are 3.5" versions of the 5.25" drives with similar designations.
