Hello,
I have a PC clone (a Columbia, actually) which has a hard disk which is on
its last legs.  I'm probably going to be buying a 80286 ot 386 based system
soon, though, so I'd prefer to get a fast hard disk now, and then transfer
it to the faster system when I buy it.

So, the question is, can I buy an AT hard disk and use it in my clone?
If so, I assume that I'd need to buy a new controller too, yes?

Thanks for any info.
