OOPS - if they are ST-412, then they are not SCSI.  SCSI drives are best
identified by having a 50 pin header connector for the signal cable.  They
are not often (if ever) seen in sizes as small as 10 MB.

Your drives are ST-506 compatible.  Actually the ST-412 is also a semi-standard,
the difference being a "buffered seek" capability.

You should be able to find a controller that can use these drives.  Keyword
being ST-506.  Some adapter boards are available to provide as SCSI interface
for ST-506 drives, but you will need to spend $$$ otherwise unneeded.
