I have seen a friend of mine do it.  He bought the part over the counter at 
an electronics supply house.  I believe Best Electronics has this part (and 
others for the ST).  If anyone has the address for this company, please post
it (I was told that they sell a cable kit for hooking a 5.25" drive to the ST).
