Since no one responded to my query about the A3000 3.5" expantion bay,
I took the cover off this morning.  The cut out is identical to the df0:
bay, making internal use of one of Teac's 3.5" form factor tape drives 
(about $450 retail) impossible.  This is highly annoying.

I like this machine, and the case is pretty, but the case is terribly
non-functional.  The on/off button is very kludgy, the rubber feet on the 
buttom are poorly attached (I've already lost one), and, like I said, the
internal expantion bay won't accept anything but standard floppy (or 
maybe a hd).
