I snagged a Tandy 2000 30Mb harddrive this weekend!!!
The actual drive is a
Quantum Model (?)204(?). It is stinking huge (not mainframe huge but
desktop huge)!
Can anyone tell me about this drive? Is there an easy way to connect a
newer HD to this machine?
The only drives I recall Tandy offering for the T2k were 10 Mb.
Newer or not, your only real choice is still ST506/MFM units.
Somebody was once working on a way to attack SCSI drives via the
Bernoulli Box interface, I never heard of any success, unlike
Bob Snapp's work with the Tandy 6000.
You're not going to get much use out of a larger drive, either.
Remember that you're stuck with MS-DOS 2.11 on the Tandy 2000.
