if these drives feature a combination of ports, then you will not find an oxford 911 only drive... the other chips, take 924 (i think) for example, it is a bridge chip... which means it runs 2 different connectors.

to my knowledge, as long as it is an oxford chip in the 9xx series you should be fine. (anyone on this forum that knows more, feel free to correct me)
