This section details Ihe physical specificalions or the host/drive inti:1l-
face mnnecto", Conneclor dimensions and iJili IIIS5isnmeniSfollow
under IUIchsection. Refer
10 Figure 9 for all overall view of the drive
and the interface connectors.
Two pain of balanced sisnals are employed for data transfer: MfM
WRITE DATA and MFM READ DATA. Data lransfer lines belween
Ihe hosl syslem and Ihe drive are dilferenlial in nalure and may nol
be multiplexed. Refer above

11 pins are numbered I through 34 with the even pins located on the
solder side of the PCB. All odd pins are ground. A key slOI is provided
belween pins 4 and 6. Pin 2 is labeled. The recommended mating
connector for JI is AMP ribbon connector, part number 88373-3.
