I own an AMSTRAD PC 1640, which has the great 
advantage of not needing ventilation. Up to the day
I installed a harddisk, I was therefore able to
work peacefully. Ever since I've been looking for
ways to combine quiet and storage space & speed.

I've read somewhere that a SCSI-harddisk may be
up to six meters away from its controller. So I
thought that it might be a good idea to fit the
harddisk in some container designed to reduce the 
noise and to put all this under the table.

Being technically illiterate I should like to know
whether this is possible at all, how it can be done
and how do achieve this at a reasonable price.

Any other suggestions are welcome, too. Thanks a lot
