An old standard interface for connecting hard disk drives to PCs. Newer standards, such as enhanced IDE and SCSI, support faster data transfer rates.

ST-506 is sometimes referred to as MFM, which is the most prevalent encoding scheme used on ST-506 disk drives. ST-506 also supports the RLL encoding format.
