I am planning on buying that HardDrive for the Sidecar.   I just want
to do some last minute technical checking before I commit.

I was with the understanding that I can in fact purchase an external
HD. 

I am planning on buying a ST251-1 (Seagate 40 Meg MFM) and an MFM
controller (XT - 8 bit), and external power supply and HD-case.

I am planning to connect this to the Third slot in the sidecar.

Please --- anyone with prior experience with this sort of thing -
please let me know if this is right or wrong.

Thank you 

Mike Dodd
