I see it has a ZIF type connector, but has it also got regular CF type pin connectors also?

Maybe hidden by the ZIF connector/adaptor?

Not seen one before, so guess ing! ;-)

The zif connector is soldered to the hard drive pcb. Most of these have the cf connector but this one is unusual. I have a zif adapter for hitachi and Toshiba but this one is wider. I think im just going to track down the usb adapter it came in unless anyone knows of such an adapter. This thing is damn tiny, could you imagine replacing the heads on this drive? LOL.

I have one of these where the customer didn't want recovery, and I decided to do it anyway for the experience. It actually doesn't look too bad. I got a bunch of donors to play with. The platter might be easier to swap. Anyway, I'll do it some day when I have free time.

Would anyone happen to have a usb adapter for this type of drive laying around that I could purchase? It came from a usb flash drive device. I purchased the same memorex usb microdrive from EBay but the drive inside had pins like a typical flash drive. Thanks.
