Seagate ST31220A 1gig
Connor CFA1275A 2.27gig
Micropolis 2217A 1.6gig
Seagate ST3600A ? gig
Seagate Medalist ST34321A 8 gig (I think)
quite a few other Seagate STxxxxA drives will work with this card, the 13GB ST313021A worked (as an 8GB drive) with the PAR card.

The maximum size IDE drive the PAR will recognize is 8GB. Any drive larger than that will show as an 8GB drive.

Also, on mine anyway(when I had it all set up), there are two drives attached to the card.

Dual-drive support for the Amiga PAR requires an IDE interface chip, designated AU8, revision B. The chip will have a marking of either "AU8 rev B" or "PAC-A8B". All but the earliest boards have this revision.

The 50 pin connection is used with a TBC

hope this helps...
