Greetings,

      I have recently aquired a Toshiba 5.25" floppy, and wish to connect it

to my Mega2 for use with PC-Ditto.  I am totally ignorant of electronics

(at least at this level) and am hesitant to just hack it together.  I need

to know someplace where I can buy a cable, enclosure, and power supply.  On

the power supply, I would like to get one that could later provide juice for

another 3.5" floppy, and maybe a Hard Drive unit.  My dream setup would be

a full height enclosure with both the 5.25 and 3.5 floppies, running off one

power supply, with some sort of switching system for the the two drives.  As

for the cable(s), I understand that Best Electronics has a kit for about $10,

but I do not have the address for the company, so if someone could send it

to me, I would appreciate it.  If you reply about the power supply, please

include part numbers and company names (again, I am an electrical moron).

Thank you for any assistance.

                                   Jason diAlt
