You might want to consider CompuAdd from Austin, TX.  We've been dealing with
them for almost 4 years now and have always gotten good service and support.
They have a 20M FlashCard for the Tandys for $359 and a 30M for $379.  We
haven't bought any of the Tandy ones, but have bought about 50 of their
IBM PC/clone Flashcards.  I think the Tandy ones use the same Miniscribe disk
and Western Digital controller, but are on a shorter frame to fit the short
slots in the Tandy computers.

I also bought a Flashcard 30 for my personal PC at home, and I haven't had any
problem with it.  Oh yes, CompuAdd also has regular (not hard card) hard disk
kits for Tandys.
