Jumper on hard drive...

I have an old seagate, 400 mb hard drive with a couple of pins on the bottom side. They're not on the back, where the jumpers on newer hard drives are for setting slave/master. It's just on the circuit board on the bottom of the hard drive, and there are only 2 pins. Anyone know what they might be for? It doesn't have pins in back to set slave/master, so could it possibly be there for that purpose? Thanks ahead.

Go to

Seagate

then do a search for your drive model. They have an archive for product manuals of their older drives.

I believe the old Seagates has a two-pin LED output connector on the bottom. That is when the old cases had drive LEDs monted in the cover plates.
