  No need. You can download the Seagate Desk Reference from their BBS and the 
9xxx series in the AT class are 2.5 drives. They have 44 pins instead of the 
40 normal on an IDE. The other 4 are just (to the best of my knowledge) the 4 
pins on an power connector.
  I've noticed that on my drive, in addition to the key pin which is removed, 
there are 2 or 3 (I forgot and didn't write them down) others that are cut on 
the drive. Curioser and curiouser.....
