You really need to know what sort of controller is in the drive. I haven't
worked with any 40Mb disks apart from the Quantum (used in Apple's 40Mb)
which is compatable .... so any drive that has a Quantum inside (and who
hasen't monkeyed with the firmware :-) should do. However there are bound
to be others - anyone else using one??
