   Chuck,  I helped my brother-in-law install an ICD hard drive 
  kit in his 1040ST.  No problem with any connections and the 
  software they provided worked fine.  If you get a drive that is
  MFM and buy an RLL controller then you could get more capacity
  from the hard drive.  His 40meg is now packing 60 meg.  ICD is
  a good choice and the price is right.  But that's just an opinion.
