I find that from past experience, posting to usenet has been most effective. I would like to know what would be the best way to go. SCSI w/the ICD host adaptor? What adaptor does Supra offer? What about RLL... what sort of interface/controller would I need for that? MFM? What are advantages/disadvantages to all of these? How do I build a HD.. do I just need the HD, case (which sometimes includes the power supply, yes?), and host adaptor? Help! A novice. Bryan_Jones_Woodworth@cup.portal.com
