I would like to add more disk drive capacity to my system, but don't
have the money for a hard drive and controller card. I have a z100
with two full height 5.25" 360K drives, running off a z-207
controller, MSDOS 2.something. Will any of the following drives work
in the 100: 3.5" 720K, 3.5" 1.44MB, 5.25" 1.2MB, or more 5.25" 360K
half heights? Installation info apreciated also (internal/external
mounting, seperate power supply needed yes/no, etc..).
Thanks

I understand that the quad density 5.25 disks will work just fine from the 8" drive part of the controller. I believe that Payload (don't have the address, check a REMark or SEXTANT or e-mail me and I'll find it) was selling the drives an a cable to connect to the controller.
