<why do peaple put these silly statements up here?>

a basic question which may have been already answered at one time or another:

   is it possible to install hard drives designed for the XT on the AT?
   specifically i have a seagate st225 that was donated to me.
   if you can install the hard drive, does anyone know what drive
   number to use in the setup program.
   is the cabling the same?
   i am asking a really stupid question?  some people have told me
   that it can be done, while others say no way.
