- I believe Computer News 80 has such a program. I'll check for you.
-
- As far as hard drives, the only source of brand new units is MISOSYS.
- They manufacture a TRS-80 to SCSI host adaptor and then use a
- SCSI to MFM (ST-506 interface) PC hard drive controller to run
- an MFM drive. They have 20 and 40 Meg. units. They include driver
- and backup software. A joystick and a real time clock are available
- as options to attach to the host adaptor. In the last edition of
- the MISOSYS Quarterly, it was announced that software to allow
- a SCSI drive to be directly connected to the host adaptor is now
- available, making it simple to install an internal hard drive in
- a Mod. 3/4/4P.
-
- MISOSYS also bought out the entire stock of Aerocomp hard drives
- so these are also available.
-
- Another option is to look around on the forsale newsgroups for old
- Tandy hard drives. They will be cheaper than new ones, but you
- take your chances. This is how I purchased both my hard drives.
