Hi:
The company I ordered a Hard disk from is taking much too long
to deliver (1.5 months). I ordered a Fujitsu M2624SA, enclosure, and  
cables for my NeXTstation color...
So, I called a few places and Quick Electronics
1-800-800-5500 had the lowest price on the Fujitsu M2624SA (520MB)
The problem is that they sell only the bare drive and have no idea
what a NeXT is. I'm planning on having this drive external. Plus,
I'm completely ignorant in terms of hardware but I can assemble
anything if instructions are provided. So, what course of action
do you recommend? What components do I need to buy to make this
drive work in an external enclosure? Should I just be patient and
wait two more weeks for a 'plug-and-play' hard disk?
