Not really rocket science. Download the disc drive guide that I put on
the web. 
http://bbc.nvg.org/doc/DiskDriveAndDFSGuide.zip

And this should give you a good start. Inside the case of a BBC 5.25"
drive all the connectors are the same as they are for a 'PC' 5.25"
drive. Just a case of hooking it up, setting the jumper, adding it in
the bios and then experimenting with the software.
