Hello there

	I have and Atari STE and want to attach a hard disk to it. I
have also been given a surplus hard disk by my employers. The hard disk
is marked

"RODIME R0351 type 2"

Is there any way I can attach this disk to the machine directly ?, via a
controller of some sort ?, which controller type ?, where can I get one
from (In the UK) ?. If this disk isn't suitable can anybody suggest a
(cheap,reliable) type that is and tell me what I need to do to attach it
to the machine.

Rather a lot of questions I know but I am *DESPERATE* for a hard disk. 

Please bear in mind that I am not very technically minded and am
relatively new to computing and computers. Please can you reply to my
friend at j.a.jones@lut.ac.uk .
	
	
		Cheers
			Steve
