The way I found easiest is to put a 40 GB IBM DeskStar in the drive bay above the 604e board. No hardware is needed. When you loosen the screws, there's a sled that will easily accommodate your HD. There's only one way for it to work. I connected the HD to a Sonnet Tempo ATA 100 PCI card. Just press the CUDA and you'll be all set. Good luck.
