Old PS/2 Hard Drives

[Curt at Atari Museum]

As I recall, most were either internal RLL's or ESDI drives.    You 
might be better off finding a MC SCSI adapter w/drive and going that 
route.   Also make sure you have every driver on the 65sx diskette for 
all components within the unit if you decide to add/remove anything from 
it as you'll have to update the config for the system.
