An adapter will work. Some of the newer drives don't have
onboard termination so this gets confusing--you'd need
an adapter with terminator in that case.

Other option would be to buy used or refurb 50-pin drive.
There's a 4gig one on Other World Computing for $34.
There are zillions on ebay. (Some people don't recommend
buying used drives but my experience has been fine.)
