I recently, uh, shall we say, forced myself to add a primary floppy to my
2000HD.  I found a Toshiba (can't remember the model number) for $65
dollars (I think $72 with shipping) which was very easy to install except
that it is a little bit too small.  I still havent tried to use washers or
something to get it higher.  It came ready for installation into a 5-1/4"
slot in something called a universal adapter kit.  It was usefull for
everything except providing a 3-1/2" faceplate.  The eject button was in a
different place so when I finally put spacers in, I'll have to cut out a
little more on the old faceplate.  (The old drive won't know the difference
;-))
