It will---I've been using a system configured that way for a month
now---but...
the cable furnished with the MEGAFILE30 is too short to reach from the
back of the MEGAFILE30 case to the 1040ST when the MEGAFILE30 is
placed under the monitor and positioned in the natural way with the
connectors at the back.  What I have done is to rotate the MEGAFILE30
by 90 degrees, which brings the connector close enough to the back of
the 1040.  It works fine, but it isn't very elegant.
