No they weren't SCSI. Those were only through either a
"spock" or "tribble" MCA card. Those were the code names.
I have *no* idea what the "real" IBM designation was. ;-)
The desktop PS/2 machines (50, 50Z, 70, etc) were all
designed with robotic assembly in mind (that's why there
are no screws or cables in those machines). To accomplish
that the HDD was a non-standard connector.

Subject: IBM PS/2 Model 70 HARD DRIVE NEEDED
Got a hard down situation and need to re-install/recreate the BBS system
I
had running.
HDD makes swishy noises when shaken, haven't tried stirring yet.
I /guess/ a bootable MCA SCSI card would work too... ;)
I had the 160MB drive, but anything above 30 would work - i guess i'll
just
have to use a SCSI Drive for the file storage area once i get an MCA
SCSI
card ....
