        Note:  The drive select jumpers are DS1 - DS7 they are located
               by the data cables. The two terminating resistors are
               located next to the drive select jumpers.

               Jumpers 16-30 are located near the center of the circuit
               board. They are not all labeled, only 24 may be listed.

               There are two controller cards that work fairly well with
               this drive. UltraStor 12F and DTC-6282-24.

               This drive works with N3.11
