The 340MB is way to much for the additional storage, so I'm going to look for a third-party drive. This leads to two questions (please forgive; I'm sure this has been asked before but I can't find anything about it): 1. Where could I find a good 300MB or so hard disk at a decent price (say around $1000 or so)? 2. How do I go about getting the full 2.0 Extended system once I have room for all of it? Thanks for the help. (P.S.: Once I get the station [end of the month] expect many novice questions.)

It is around $1100 from many discounted stores. I know that it works on a PC quite well. -- Mike my@dtg.nsc.com

I ordered a 105 MB cube two weeks ago, and ordered the 2.0 Extended on 2.88 disk (I HOPE i ordered it on 2.88 -- they might have said optical. humm.... I better make that 2.88 or order an Optical drive also). - Vareck
