Looks like it's time for me to get a hard drive. I've heard about people who have built their own, and I could use some advice. I'm looking for a combination of removeable and normal internal drive. A fast access time is nice, but not the most important thing. I'd like to be able to hook up a laser printer as well. Ideally there would be room in the case to put a floppy 3.5 inch drive. What combination of host adapter+software, controller, mechanism, and power supply would be optimal for this kind of hard drive setup? Another question: anyone heard of the MASTER 3S external floppy drive distributed by Konyo international? Thanks for any advice. If anyone wants a summary of info I get I'll be happy to forward what I learn. -- John Schmitt johns@maccs.dcss.mcmaster.ca ...!unet!utai!utgpu!maccs!johns SCHMITTJ@SCIvax.McMaster.CA
