I have a IBM PS/2 70 A21 for which I would like an additional large
hard drive (between 300 and 600 Mbytes). As far as I can tell I cant
add another drive internally, anyway the bay appears to be a 3.5" bay 
and the only large drives I have seen are 5.25".   Is this true, also if
I buy an external hard drive will it have to be ESDI to be compatible
with the existing 120Mbyte drive?  Will a standard controller work with
the relatively longer cables that an external drive implies? Also does 
anyone know a a good UK supplier of cases for external drives.
I will post a summary of responses
