I have an opportunity to buy a Toshiba MK50FB ST-506 80 Meg drive
for $400.  Considering getting a case, power supply, controller,
driver, and what-not, is this a good deal?  And if it is, where
could I get the things I need to get this up and running
with the least amount of hassle?  I am a software person, not
really into hardware, so while I would be willing to do some
programming if I could get some kind of sources for a driver,
I would much rather the hardware came out of a box, ready-made.

So... if anyone would know of anything to help make this a good
deal, I would appreciate their help.

Thanks!
