	I'm looking to buy a Hard Drive system for my Amiga 500.  Most
probably I will buy a controller separate from the drive, so I can cash
in on cheap Seagate prices.  

	The one controller that I seem to hear favorable things about is
the Xetec FastTrak controller.  Does anyone know anything about this?  
What does it come with?  The cheapest price that I have found so far is
$379 mailorder.  

	My next question is kind of a generic seagate drive question.  If
I buy one from a Mail Order company, what does it come with?  Case?  
Will I need to buy more than just a controller and drive?  Will I need to 
buy a fan or power supply?  (I just want to make sure that I know of 
every cost I am going to be having.)

Thanks...

And now for the uninteresting, unoriginal, unfinished .signature!
