I am thinking of adding a 3.5 inch disk to my Rainbow.  I would appreciate
any information available.  Especially the following:

1)      What does the electical interface to the disk look like?
	Is it compatible with the Rainbow disk controller?

2)      What special software would be required to drive the disk?
	Does it look similar to the 5.25 inch disk software?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
