Hi there netter's,
		  I have just got my self an A1200.  A quick machine 
when compaired to my old A500 BUT a lot of software does NOT run on
it.  In order to get more serious use for the A1200 I want to install
a hard drive to it.  I have to choice of two drives

	1) A Microscience Int Crop (model HH-1050)
	or
	2) An old Seagate ST-238R

		  My first question has to be ... which, if any, have an
IDE interface ?  I have got a PSU that will do both drives and know a bit
about electronics so making up cables is not that difficult a task but am
I asking too much ... Can either of the above be linked to the A1200 (it
is clamed to have an IDE controler inside) with just a cable ?  If this 
is possable could some one E-MAIL me the pin connections ?

		  Provided the hardware connections go ok ... what has to
be done to the software to make it "see" the harddisk ?  How do I format
the disk (just like a black floppy) ?

		  The questions I have put here may seem very simple but
as I have not got the FULL set of manuals with the computer I have no 
circuit digm to go with !  So a full set of pin-outs for the 40 way IDE
connector in the computer and the pin-outs on the drives would be a big
help to solving this problem.

		   Thanks is advance,
