Hard disk for SE

I just received a Mac SE with two floppies, and I would like to replace
one of the floppies with an internal hard drive, without paying Apple's
price.

I would prefer 80 Mbytes to 20 (who wouldn't) but, being a poor graduate
student, that depends on price.

My questions are these:
	What type of drive (manufacturer and model number) does Apple
	sell for the 20 Meg upgrade? for 80 Meg?  Does it have to
	be a 3.25 inch half-height?

	Who sells these drives and for how much?

	What additional mounting brackets, cables, etc. are required?

	Would I be better off just buying a Jasmine or some other
	external drive?

I am not afraid of opening up my Mac (I piggy-backed ram-chips to
bring my original 128k Mac up to 1 Meg.  After that any other surgery
is minor.)

		Thanks in advance

"The nice thing about the Intel family is that it retains upward
compatability.  There are many streetlights out there which would
be obsolete if the 4004 could not be replaced by a 80386 with
an optional floating point coprocessor"
