What is the difference between Seagate 73GB 15,000RPM SCSI Hard Drive, Model ST373453LW and Model ST373453LC

Please recommend a SCSI controller for this drive. The inital use will not involve a RAID array but it is possible that future additions will be made.

Thank you

LW is 68 pin.
LC is 80 pin.

LW is the one you want, and that's the one I ordered for my new computer.
The controller is an Adaptec 320 here.

It's an oem part, which comes with 1 cable for the hard drive. If you want to attach legacy devices like tape drives, you'll need your own 50 pin cable for them. You also may need to download updated drivers from Adaptec to make it fly.
