Hi guys, does anyone here recognize this drive. What I want to know is what kind of connector do I need to even plug this drive with motherboard? Any help or suggestion would be appreciated. see attached pics.

Thanks

I think that is a ESDI connector.

Yep, ESDI... You'll need a special controller for it. I see some old ISA ESDI controllers on ebay for pretty cheap.

if it hasn't been used for a long time it will probably have stiction (Heads stuck to platter inside), quite typical on these old beasts

Hope all goes well

Thank you guys for your input, glad I did not waste too much time on this one. Client changed their mind and decided not to recover data after all.
