They are good looking units, but the easiest way to make them
useful is probably to take out the old mechanism, put in a good
sized, say at least 300MB, SCSI unit, attach a ribbon cable,
install Cen-50 connectors in the back, and attach the two.....
thereby turning the Profile into an SCSI device.

Steve Buggie will do this upgrade for you if you provide the SCSI
unit and the Profile...
