BM.I have a Micropolis 170mb ESDI hard drive that is physically located
  .in an old  workstation.  I would like to connect this drive to an
  .IBM PC/XT to use as a second hard drive.  My questions are:
  .
  .1. Can this be done?  Does the PC/XT support ESDI?

Although there might be an ESDI controller, I doubt it's in current
production.  I've personally never seen one, but I've heard that they
do (did?) exist.
