What kind of SCSI drive is this ??

I got a seagate cheetah ST336752LC that is supposed to be U160 SCSI. But the one and only connector on the back is some funky kind (maybe fiber channel?) and there is no power connector. WTH?
 
It is a hot swappable SCA (80pin) drive...

The power goes through the 80pin backplane connector, unless you have an SCA (80pin) to 68 pin adapter. If you need one LMK.
 
It's the X15-36LP 36.7GB ... the 'LC' designates SCA connection. You'll need either an SCA-to-68pin LVD converter, or a backplane to plug the drive in to. SCA encompasses the power and interface all in one plug. These drives are designed for 'hot swaps'.
 
I have three new LVD SCA-68pin connectors for sale in my thread posted above.

These are exactly what you need, I am running the same setup.
