Dear Wizards,

   A dear, and I mean DEAR, friend of mine has a Lisa, S/N D04071.
Along with this Lisa is an Apple ProFile with a 5Meg. drive.  The 
profile has a controller with assembly #656-0102-M and an analog
board with assembly #656-0101-J driving a Seagate ST-506 
S/N 206552 MLC-02-5.  The problem, you ask?  She needs a larger
drive, and loves her Lisa and would never trade it for a real
Madc if her life depended on it.  In addition, as if that weren't
enough, she wants to add a double density drive to her system.

   My question, then, is - Can I get a drive which will work with
this 1981 vintage controller, and can I get a double sided drive
which the Lisa can deal with?

   Please don't tell me that she has to upgrade to a real Mac, that
is not the answer I seek.  She LOVES her Lisa, and reveres it for the
significant historical value it represents.  PLEASE,  help me save a
Lisa.  Help me earn the many great meals and other rewards which I
may garner for a succesful disk transplant... HELP ME
