I have only three choices Mitsumi, Panasonic and Sony. Please note, this is NOT an IDE (ATA) interface. All even number pins 2 through 40 are GND. The remaining pins are as follows: Pin Signal 1 Address bit 0 3 Address bit 1 5 No Connection 7 No Connection 9 No Connection 11 No Connection 13 Interrupt 15 Data Request for DMA 17 Data acknowledge for DMA 19 Read enable 21 Write enable 23 Bus enable 25 Data bit 0 27 Data bit 1 29 Data bit 2 31 Data bit 3 33 Data bit 4 35 Data bit 5 37 Data bit 6 39 Data bit 7 Good Luck.
