Thanks to everyone who responded.  What I was fishing for, was some sort
of idea as to WHAT my drives are (single-ended? narrow? wide? fast? LVD?
HVD?) so I would know what to look for in SCSI cards.  Here's what I
have learned so far:

ST15150N: half-height (1.6 inches), 5 GB, narrow, single-ended, 50-pin
ST34573WD: 1-inch high, 4.5 GB, wide differential, 68-pin
ST34371W: 1-inch high, 4.5 GB, wide single-ended, 68-pin

(Thanks, Jay and Paul!)

Thanks to Stan's web site (http://www.sieler.com/hpdisk.txt) I now have
an idea what these drives are:
C2490AM - SCSI-SE 3.5"  2.0 GB
C3010M1 - SCSI-SE 5.25  2.0 GB

Are these drives narrow?  50-pin?

And finally, are the power connectors on these drives compatible with
the power connectors inside a PC?

Thanks,
Art
