:(1)	Buy a Supra SCSI controller for $209
:(2)	Buy a 49M Seagate HD for $349
:(3)	Buy a box with power supply and fan for $79
:(4)	Piece them together

	Yup, that should work fine... Make sure you get the cable and
little adapter card with your Supra interface though! You'll also have
to buy (or build) a short 50 line ribbon cable with IDC connectors on
each end to go from the little interface card to the drive itself.

:Thanks in advance!
