Does anyone have knowlege of any alternatives (besides Apple) for upgrading
from an 800k floppy to the HD drive?  From the information I have obtained
thus far, I find Apple as the only (expensive) alternative.

The hardware setup is an early Mac II.  I realize that it IS necessary to
do a ROM upgrade through Apple, but that is the cheapest part . . . what about
the drive itself?

If I get worthwhile suggestions, I will post a summary to the net.

Thanks in advance
