I had a 148 at one time and there was a little daughter board needed in order
to plug the hard drive controller in, but I had a modem in the machine.  I
think if there is nothing else in the machines slots there should be no
problem plugging in the hard drive controller in the slot directly.  One other
point the hard drive card may need to be a half slot card.  If you have
questions just ask?
