I am trying to replace one of my Tandon TM100-1's on my PC with two
new "slim-line" Tandon TM55-2's (aka TL55-2 ???).  However there are
two problems.  I don't have the accessories for mounting them one on
top of the other.  There seem to be enough clearance to mount them
that way (height of TM55-2 is 1 9/16 in. and that of the TM100-1 is 3
9/16in.).  However I have to be careful to leave enough clearance
between them to accommodate the microprocessor that is on the top of
each drive.  The other problem is that the power surge of the TM55-2
might be too much for the PC power supply.

Tandon suggested that I use the TM50-2 instead since it is directly
compatible with the TM100-2 in functionality and power supply
requirement.

Has anyone out there installed the TM55-2's on their PC/XT?  I'll be
interested in your solutions.  Replies will be posted.

Willie
