HELP!   I just purchased a hard disk with an 'ST412' interface.  It seems
that my controller will accept only a 'ST506' drive.   What is the 
difference in the interfaces?  Is there modifications possible, or am I
doomed to return the drive?

The drive is a Seagate ST251, the computer is an AT&T Unix PC 7300 (with
the controller built into the mother board.
