If you have any information, please send it to me via E-mail and I will post a summary. Who makes such an animal? What is necessary to connect it up? Will Norton and Mace raw data editors still work? How much does one cost? Is it better to retrofit or buy a higher capacity drive? Etc., etc. I have seven years experience in the repair and integration of computers. If you should snow me in your reply, I'll ask for clarification. Thanks in advance. Phil Buckland psb@eecea.eece.ksu.edu rutgers!ksuvax1!eecea!psb
