Help!  I have a very old Hitachi drive.  It doesn't have a model
number on it, but it doesn't use a caddy or have an audio jack.  It
also has a 35 pin cable that goes to its interface card.  Several
questions:

        1) Any idea what model it is?

        2) Windows crashes whenever I try and load from this drive.
Do I just need new driver?  If so, where can I get them?  I spoke
with Hitachi but they want $30 for new drivers, and it still might
not fix the problem.

        3) Anyway to add an audio jack?

Any information is appreciated.
