Subject: Re: Try Compact Drives+ CJR cable

I have a Master that has a built-in 3.5" drive, fitted to the right rear 
of the case.
Ribbon cable is internally patched into the disk drive interface which 
allows me to also run a 5.25" drive at the same time (so long as one of 
them is jumpered as drive 1 instead of 0).
I'm told this was a fairly common upgrade here in NZ, but was it done in 
the UK as well? - from the discussions about drives so far I'd guess not.
I'm not certain what model the drive is or any other more technical 
details but I can whip the top off and take some pics (of the Master!) 
if you're interested.

Cheers
Richard
