Hello there, A friend of mine has an Amstrad portable - the model PPC640-2 with two 3 1/2" floppy drives. He would like to add a hard disk to this, preferably an external one since I don't think the physical arrangement will allow an internal drive. Can someone recommend a good supplier? Cheers, -Graham Brand

We never bought a hard disk for it, after all, if I have to lug the PC, briefcase, and suitcase on a trip, I don't want to lug the hard disk case too. I did investigate and it seems the best place to get a HD is from Amstrad directly (well actually, from a local distributer). Call Amstrad (RTFM) and ask. If you don't have manuals with addresses and/or phone numbers, I might be persuaded to try to find our manuals and look it up.
