And, actually, no 8" drive had a dual row 50-pin just like no 5.25" drive had a dual row 34-pin, both used only gold edge card connectors, 50-pin or 34-pin. But when assembling a few of these in the factory, I decided to go all out and use super deluxe ejector headers, because 50-pin box headers ALWAYS break out the plastic end pieces after a few removals, because 50 pins is too long to not have proper ejector/latches to gently pry/lift the female cable connector out of the male header.
