I wish to move an internal 40mb apple hard disk from a mac II to my other
mac - one of the original 128K (that's RAM, not ROM!) with a home brew 
1Mb upgrade, a big fan, new ROM's, and a third party SCSI (will DOVE's 
work with this drive?).  Putting the drive internal will save finding a
box and power supply for the drive, but I am not sure the ps in the mac
is up to the extra load.  I recall the original power supply boards had
some bad components (in particular, a zener diode of inappropriate value).

Please recommend how to beef up, heat sink, etc, the power supply for
the hard disk, extra memory, and SCSI port -- or is this impossible? 

Thanks in advance.
