About this MacDrive business.... I downloaded this very same file some time last December. I spent close to a month locating a place that would sell me the necessary logic chips and assorted parts. I couldn't locate the DB-23s or the DB-19s anywhere, though. At one point I decided to just shave off part of DB-25 connectors (which are a HELL of a lot easier to come by). But when I did get the connectors, I discovered to my horror that the pin spacings were different than the breadboard that was specified in the instructions. So in all, I spent a whole lot of time and money getting parts for a project I never finished.... Just to let you know what you're in for...
