I bought an A500 in feburary, and I'm already thinking of a 20Meg hard drive. I know about the limitations on power, and the unexpandability (via an internal card) without going to an expansion box. What have you in net-land done to connect hard-drives to your A500? I prefer the "open the box and get it running" instead of the "just connect this wire to this pin and ... " type of system. I would like prices, and experiences with service (manufacturer and distributers) if you can. As a side note, I saw that Matt Dillon was tooking at a 230Meg drive. What size of drive are other people using? What speeds? If there is a reasonable response, I'll post the results to the net. If there is no reasonable response I'll just have to post something else :) :) Thanks in advance. -lance- ps: My machine is going down for a week, in a week. If I don't respond that I received your input, then try again after July 10.
