	I am trying to help a friend upgrade his DEC Rainbow . It currently
	uses a 5mb hard drive, and he needs 10mb or larger.

	Are their commercially available (mail order?) drives of this size?
	Will I need to buy a new controller? I think I remember hearing that
	only certain DOS rev's will format the larger drives (2.1 or above,
	maybe?)?

	Please respond via mail, as I don't retain this newsgroup for long.

	Thanks.
