Sorry if this has been covered before, but can someone summarize the
hardware/software needed to add a hard drive to an Amiga 500?

I've recently been seeing quite a few used hard drives for sale fairly 
cheaply.  I don't know what interface hardware and software would be
needed to attach one of them to my 500, and I also don't know what
software is runnable from which types of hard drives.

Any help you can give would be appreciated.
