Since I'm not too satisfied with Atari's 20MB harddisk (small, slow and
pretty expensive), I'm considering to connect a 30 or 40 MB harddisk
to my 520 ST+ (either SCSI or ST506). My questions are similar:

Where can I find specifications of SCSI and/or ST506 and what software/hard-
ware modifications are needed on the Atari to make it work ?

       Thanks in advance.
