I would suggest that you look at Magnolia Micro Systems for
disk systems for your Z/H89. I have upgraded a friend's H89
using Magnolia stuff and the hardware has always worked and the
manuals were always accurate and easy to read. And usually,
the installation of anything from them has worked the first
time. HOWEVER, although thier stuff has been good, I have noticed
that generally, their system with 8" shugart disks is rather
slow. I have not had time to figure out why; if it is the type
of disks (I have the step rate set to the fastest possible of
their version of CP/M) or what. If you are looking for performance,
look someplace else, if you want ease of use/upgrade/etc, they
are pretty good.
