Its does not have a HD section. could have other sections for tape and
expansion. Some where 30 " or better long. If it boots from floppy it
should be fine. I believe the systems I have use ST 506 drives but the
controller is built into the HD section.

Note that this Desktop Generation does not appear
to have any hard disk
drive, only dual floppies. DG/RDOS [nor AOS or AOS/WS] will not run on
that configuration...
Seller claims in his text that it boots RDOS from the floppies...
If required, what kind of harddisk would be needed ?
a ST506 type or a DG specific ?
