SUMMARY#: Which is Best?

Hi there. I just purchased a Sheagate ST4096 80Meg full height hard drive,
and would like to know which hard dive kits are the best?

I have various questions about the kits:

1)   Which kits support full height dives?
2)   Which interface hardware is the best?
3)   Which softare best supports an 80Meg drive? How many partitions are
     allowed? Auto-bootable? Whats the maximum size of a partition? Is
     it compatible with Minix or other OSs?
4)   How large is the case? Does the fan make alot of noise?
5)   Which Adaptec interface is the best for a MFM drive?
6)   Which kit is the fastest? Which is the easist to put together?
7)   What are the prices?

Please Email me directly. If anybody wants me to summarize, send me
Email.

Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
Greg Welych.
