Happy New Year, everyone!

I don't know if this is exactly the rightplace to ask this, but...

A friend just gave me a Seagate ST-4051 full height 40Mb disk (it wouldn't
work RLL, so I got it).  He just gave it to me bare.  Does anyone have any
technical info on this drive?  I'd like to know the meaning of each of the
jumpers most of all.  I moved a few around and got it to work, but I'd like
some more information.

While I'm at it, one more question.  I have a Seagate ST-225 drive that is
also installed in the system (now as the second hard disk, D:).  I have a 
tower case, and had the 225 directly above the 4051 - and started getting
read errors on the 225.  I moved the 225 three slots higher, and have not
experienced the problem again.  Is it possible for adjacent hard disks to
interfere with each other (magneticly)?  

Thanks for any help.
