- There are many adaptors available for 2.5" to 3.5" IDE drives,
- I have used cables as long as about 8" with no problems on
- IDE drives, but I think that is about the limit.
-
- Local stores have Western Digital 2.5" IDE Hard disks, 60MB
- for $175 or less. SG Computers in San Diego is one such place,
- IDE 2.5" drives are pretty cheap now. The WD 60Mb is quite
- fast, in the PC's we have here at work
