Hello fellow Netters:
I recently purchased an IBM PS2-30/286 w/1MB, 30MB Harddrive, and a 1.44MB
3.5 floppy. I would like to add externally a 1.2MB - 5.25 floppy, a full size
cartrage tape, and another harddisk, and possibly others in the future.
My question is what is the best and most economical way to do this?
I have looked through the Computer Shopper and have seen adds for boxes
for external drives w/ & w/o power supplies. If I purchase one w/o a power
supply, where do I get a power supply? Can I use the same ones advertised for
the PC's themselves? Considering that I would have to buy at least 2 of these
external boxes, would it be better to just buy a PC case? From what I've seen
in the add's, it looks like it would be even money to buy a Full Size 5 bay
Case and use a standard 200W power supply.
Also what would be the best choice for a second harddrive?
Any and all suggestions, hint's, comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your helpful consideration.
