Q1:I'm about to add the AdIDE/40 hard drive controller and an IDE hard
drive to my Amiga 1000.  If I want to use an external power supply, eg.,
a generic 150w IBM type, do I have to connect the grounds of the two 
power supplies together?  Should I connect any of the other power
leads together?  Also, can I avoid this altogether and just use
the A1000 power supply comfortably (so it won't even sweat)?  

Hmmm....
Q1a:  If I can use the A1000 power supply, is there room inside
the 1000 for a 1" high 80MB Hard drive (would be nice).

Q2: Is AdSpeed compatable with AdIDE?
