I'm want to upgrading my AT&T PC 6300 with a 20Mb hard disk, and I need help
finding an appropriate model of drive and controller.  Plenty of disks work
with the 6300, of course, but I'm trying to satisfy the following criteria:

	- 1/2 height
	- fast access time (preferably 30-40ms, but I'll take what I can get)
	- Controller capable of keeping up with the drive
	- Xenix V/86 compatible (Xebec, WD, or DTC compatible controller)
	- reasonably priced ( < $800, the cheaper the better, of course)

Any pointers to manufacturers, distributors, or reference sources are greatly
appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
