Hello,
Has anyone ever worked with this drives?
I'm looking for an CE ZIF to SATA or IDE adapter, any recommendations ?
Thanks.

If I remember it right, it is an IDE drive, and you can find adapters to a notebook ide form factor, or usb ones.

Here is a thread which indicates that the MK1234GAL was used in a Sony HDR-XR155 Handycam:

Long time no see !
Fun fact, I an external security / data protection compliance consultant for that company. I've also asked them for an adapter, but I fear that the pinout for this disk may be diferent from the ones they used, since this disk was from a Sony video camera.
I'll grab it tomorrow and I will test it and report back!

Hey again,
So, the pinout provided by Frank was correct.
Imaging the drive now with MRT.
