Concerning the Megafile 30 :
  The answer is, look inside. The old SH204 had an atari-made ACSI->SCSI
card connected to an adaptec 4000 connected to a seagate 225.  The Adaptec
cards ARE capable of controlling 2 disk mechs at a time. As I recall, the
megafile 20 my friend has had only a single, large board in it.  Look for
a spare 20 pin connector inside the drive -- probably right next to the
connector that attaches to the 30 mb mech.
  It seems to me that there's not enough room in a megafile for a second mech.
If this is the case, a second power supply and etc would bring the total cost
up to near the cost of a complete extra drive, which could be daisy-ed
through the megafile, right?
  If there's no other connector, you could always just sell off the current
30mb disk mech and replace it with a larger capacity one.
  I am rather interested in what exactly IS in a megafile 30, so if you
or anyone else knows already or finds out, I'd like to hear.
