I just found out this thread, after Anansi ressuscitated it, and it think the project was a very interesting one, even if its path appeared mired by hardship and tech hurdles. Shame it was abandoned.
BTW, I have one point to make:
Someone (see the HD mod FAQ:
H1XX and H3XX Series FAQ's @
www.misticriver.net/forums/199333-post56.html) managed to install a normal sized HD to a H3x0 via an adapter and I recall talk of a harcoded limit of like 80 GB on the DAP disk reading capacity. Anyone pursuing this path should look into that...
