- I've got an mono-040-upgrade cube with an OD and 340mb Maxtor disk.
- Well I'm out of disk space and could use some advice...
- I'm looking for somewhere over a gig and around 12ms access (or faster).
- The plan is to ditch my Maxtor and replace it with another internal
- disk. Who's got recommendations for such an animal? Oh, and I'd like
- it to be a quiet drive.
-
- Also, the old disk is a 5-1/4" full height drive. Can I replace it with
- a 3-1/2" half height? If I do this can I fit a floppy drive in my cube?
- Where can I get a floppy drive mechanism without the external case?
- Do I need a new faceplate? Is it actually possible to house a floppy
- drive, a hard disk and an OD in the same cube? And what about cables?
-
- Please email suggestions, I'll summarize.
- Thanks for any help.
