A lot of us wish you could just pop in another hard drive but the ROM on the
card itself is is coded for that particular size and make of hard drive.
If you wish to still keep your hard drive inside the Vulcan power supply you'll

need toeither go SCSI with either an Apple Hi-Speed or Ramfast SCSI controller.

Or what'd be easier is to get an IDE controller from SHH Systeme in Germany.
