Corvus Systems, Inc. San Jose, Ca (408) 559-7000 makes hard disks
for the Apple as well as other personal computers. The Corvus allows
the hard disk to be partitioned into Pascal,CP/M, and DOS volumes.
They also have hardware and software for backing up the hard disk to
video tape, and offer networking for multiple computers sharing a
hard disk. I have used their system for almost 5 years, and have
been pretty pleased with them.

Dale,
I have recently gotten a Davong 15 Meg system. It can support CP/M,
Apple DOS and Pascal volumes. There is a good summry of hard disk
manufacturers in the Compupro reports. If you have any specific
questions, I'll be happy to answer them.

Corvus Systems (San Jose) makes a hard disk that supports DOS 3.3 and
Pascal 1.1 (last I heard). By now, it may also support CP/M and ProDos.

I believe that Corvus is still making 10 and 20 Meg hard disks. IN fact
they have this funky system called a "Constellation II" that allows you
to hook up a 20 Meg corvus to BOTH an Apple II and an IBM PC at the SAME TIME.
Pretty bizarre. Unfortunatly I don't have their address, but they are
a local (Silicon Valley) company -- probably Mountain View CA.
Good Luck!

Just look around in any magazine on apples and you will find that
there are many hard disks available for the II+/e. Do spend some time
looking at the Corvus systems, as they are by far the most popular.

I have a friend who has an hard disk bought from some small
company in Alabama. He runs Pascal on it. It is 5 meg +
5 meg removable cartridge. I believe I've seen its ads in
the late Softalk magazine.

I built a hard disk for my apple. It cost me about $1100. I just bought
the parts and the software, and slaped it together and it worked. If you
would like more specific plans, I will write in more detail. I may even
send it to info-apple; what do you think?
