No adaptor?  I can just buy the case, cable, pwr supply, drive, and plug
it into my ST?  If so, then I really am going to have to get one ASAP.
It's cheaper than whatever 3rd party manufacturers offer.

Also, which drives are good and which ones aren't so good?  Teac, Toshiba
are two companies which are often mentioned in the ads.
