Im now working on a 5170 with a Seagate ST-4096 Hard drive.
I looked in here and found a thread that this drive is a Type 12. I used this to run the Setup for the system after I put in a new battery.

I am trying to get this drive to be recognized. It is unknown if this drive is good or not. But I have seen it sitting their side, and upside down as the guy was talking to me about it. So possible damage from bad handling over the years. But it clean. no dust, or visible damage.
On power up of the AT I get 1780 error and a long wait before Resume F1 shows. The controller card is a standard IBM 2nd gen HD card with correct jumper setting.
From FDisk I get drive not ready.
I loaded SSTOR diagnostics and from the seek test I get error 1714. The same for LLF
The cables are standard IBM blue ribbon type. Looking from top down the power side of the cable is on the left for both cables.
I also have a miniscribe 6085. but I can't find it's AT Drive type number.
Suggestions?
Thanks
