  2. Floppy disk drive interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floppy_disk_drive_interface

    Most controllers support two floppy drives, so a cable could have 5.25-inch style connectors, 3.5-inch style connectors, or a combination. After IBM introduced the "twist" to floppy cables, and when both 5.25-inch and 3.5-inch drives were in common use, many cables had four connectors: one of each type before the twist, and one of each type ...

  3. Berg connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berg_connector

    Many types of Berg connectors exist. Some of the more familiar ones used in IBM PC compatibles are: the four-pin polarized Berg connectors used to connect 3½-inch floppy disk drive units to the power supply unit, usually referred to as simply a "floppy power connector", but often also referred to as LP4. This connector has a 2.50 mm (0.098 in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floppy-disk_controller

    When the controller and disk drive are assembled as one device, as it is the case with some external floppy disk drives, e.g., Commodore 1540 and USB floppy disk drives, [27] the internal floppy disk drive and its interface are unchanged, while the assembled device presents a different interface such as IEEE-488, parallel port or USB.

  5. Molex connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molex_connector

    The desktop computer hard-drive connector (AMP Mate-n-Lok 1-480424-0 power connector) is standard on all 5.25-inch floppy drives, 3.5-inch PATA and non-SCA SCSI disk drives; however, newer SATA disk drives employ a more advanced interconnection with 15 contacts. These advanced connection systems were first developed by Molex and other connector ...

  6. Parallel ATA - Wikipedia

    There are two variants of ARMD, ARMD-FDD and ARMD-HDD. Originally ARMD caused the devices to appear as a sort of very large floppy drive, either the primary floppy drive device 00h or the secondary device 01h. Some operating systems required code changes to support floppy disks with capacities far larger than any standard floppy disk drive.

  7. ST-506/ST-412 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST-506/ST-412

    The control cable interface is very similar to the standard Shugart floppy disk interface; like that floppy disk interface, it can support four drives. The data cable carries a read signal and write signal, both as differential binary signals: the two signal states correspond to the two possible differential signal polarities.
