I am looking for a cheap way to upgrade the hard disk in a Model 50.
I do know about the IBM solution but it is very expensive.  I was
wondering if anyone has been able to upgrade the 20 meg hard disk
to a 40 or 80 meg internally?  Does anyone know of a HardCard that
will work in the MicroChannel?  Is there any way to use the second
floppy bay for the hard disk and keep the original hard disk?  Any
ideas on how to do this would greatly be appreciated.  Thanks for your
time.
