I have my IIgs setup in a tower case and am now installing my 800k drive in the tower case. It would be nice to have usb support, if possible I woud then thread a connection to the front of my tower case for quick and easy swapping of files if thats possible of course?

The just thread a compact flash reader to the front of your case and
then you are all set. I've used a simple IDE-to-CF adapter cable to
make the CF cards on my Apple II external.
In fact, here is a site that has the adapter and even some external
mounting brackets for the front of a PC; just add an IDE cable and
you're all set!
