I have a large (in both senses of the word) hard drive that was once
connected to an Archie's Winchester Podule. It's in a large metal case 
(this was the case for a Beeb HD but has had the 1mhz bus stuff removed
and a big hole cut for the ST506 cables).

I think its around 50 megs, and the drive itself is 5.25" full height.
Weighs a ton! No idea how reliable it is, but I do know its rather
noisey - we ran it as a printer spooler in school for a while, I think
it made more of a racket than the (DeskJet) printer.

Cheers
