It would help to know either what system it was attached to, or the full part number. I have lots of variations of Hawk drive manuals that I haven't uploaded.

Wow, a Hawk drive. I have a pair of Wrens here (9457's), need to find the SMD power supply that's up in the attic somewhere. Hope it finds a home, does it have an SMD or other type of interface?
