sam:
I bet you'll find some stacked away in University sysadmin offices (I used to have a few but junked them).

Why does it have to be 40Mb? Can it not be larger?

If you let me know the type of hard drive - i.e. what is the connection, I'm going to assume IDE though. I could fire an email off to our sysadmin and see.

Clive:
Thanks very much Sam.  I don't know the full details yet but if and when I do I will get back to you.  It's for the 36" at the IoA where the spectrometer has conked out. 

sam:
I thought that might have been the case - I'm sure the IoA people (I was in their sys admin office the otherday) must have tons of old kit - then again they might have cleaned.
