Only thing I've seen on Overland drives, not adapters, is a parallel 
port on some of the
1/2" decks.

I have used all the cables interchangably and with both controllers.  I 
think I have one of
every controller they made from the tc-50 on up.

Of course they used two 50 pin cables, not the custom round one.
