Has anyone seen a utility that will extract a "shar" file into it's separate files on a ST? Perhaps the line editor with the Micro C shell is close enough to do the job. I was also curious if anyone knows of a source for raw 3.5" double sided drives. I'd like to upgrade to 2 DS drives but I don't want to spend $500. Putting a 5.25" drive on the ST was so easy I'm sure that putting a pair of 3.5" drives won't be much of a problem either. Dave Davis ...decvax!decwrl!rhea!sphinx!davis

There is an outfit in california that will replace the innards of a single sided drive, to a double sided one. I cannot offhand remember their name, but their ads used to appear in ST applications and maybe in other mags too. I seem to remember they wanted around $100.
