Is it a full height 5/1/4 inch HDD? I've got me one of them which I've never mounted, since I've never had enough free power to be able to! ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0

I have one of dose in my IBM XT, 10MB of full height ST506 goodness. The damn thing consumes 5 amps and sounds like a learjet on takeoff run when it starts spinning. I am beginning to wonder if the energy that entire machine consumes is equal to that of my refrigerator's consumption.
