> Any opinion on hard drives would be appreciated.

Buy an external. If you buy a good one, it will be nearly as fast as any
Vulcan. If you run it with a Multi-Kache Card, it will be faster than any
Vulcan. And if you are disappointed in the future with Apple's level of
support, or simply feel that you need to explore another computer
architecture, your hard drive investment will not be lost.

.. As a note: If you do know that you will be sticking with your Apple II, and
if you don't anticipate a need to use your hard drive in a networked
situation, there has never been a better personal, one-computer hard drive
than the Vulcan.
