I got my Quantum Fireball 1.08GB drive (with GSI Model 21 controller)
from Insight (www.insightd.com)

I got the drive, the controller, mounting brackets (*without* the rails)
a drive cable (but *not* the floppy cable), a bunch of screws, a couple
of bezels,  an LED (for the drive active light), an installation guide
for the drive and the manual for the controller.

There was *no* diskette.  The only software you need (maybe) is the
replacement *WDDCTRL (I think that's it) for 32-bit *disk* access.  I got
mine from the Quantum toll free BBS (obviously not very useful from the
*.sg domain).

FTP-able versions of this file are listed in the ATA-2 FAQ.  I can also
arrange to uuencode and mail this to you if you need it.
