It seems to be an IDE drive.  A Turbodisk or MicroDrive IDE controller
from SHH Systems in Germany will drive it.  The Focus controller from
Alltech (in the USA) was also advertised as a good replacement for
Vulcan/InnerDrive controllers.

It MIGHT be SCSI, though, so check the writing on the mechanism to
be sure.
