One guy is selling an old computer from the 1980's. Here is a picture he sent me about the hard drives. What is the interface used in this hard drive?

No ST-412 interface?? Would just read whats written on the labels of these drives.

~ At least it can do black and white~

The only real difference that I seem to recall between ST506 and ST412 in terms of the interface was the ST506 used a higher current for signalling but electrically they are compatible.
I'm putting my bets on both drives being the famous ST225. They are considered the most reliable hard drive ever built.
