Hi, I'm interested in adding a 40meg hard drive to the Amiga side of my 2000 and would appreciate any comments or suggestions on specific drives and controllers. I'm particularly interested in the advantage of SCSI vs ST-506 and DMA vs non- DMA. Also any known problems with the 2090? Are any third party controllers shipping now? If so what are their advantages? Have also heard rumors of a super controller called SDP and would like details of features, price and shipping also vendor name. Thanks in advance for the information. Bill
