HD50 is the normal standard SCSI-2 connector (narrow). A very few
manufacturers (Apple being the main culprit) put 25 way D connectors
on the back of SCSI kit for reasons best known to themselves, which is
what the other one is for. Best is to avoid such non-standard monstrosities
like the plague.

> 	- (for those who have it ;) will any SCSI drive fit

That depends on the enclosure, not the drive. Any drive can be placed
in an enclosure with an HD50 connector on the back - thoughif you
have a wide drive you will get half the speed as yu only have an 8 bit
bus not a 16 bit one.
