Not expressing interest, but - just curious - is that the machine with built-in 44-pin IDE i/f ? Somewhere near the PSU if I remember rightly ?
Asking because I sold a Acorn machine a few years ago (should have kept it !!) but for some reason I kept its hard drive - a Prairietek 120 20MB 2.5" IDE - which claims to be the world's first ever 2.5" hard drive ! Mine is still working too

A3020 possibly?

Could have been .... but A3010 also sounds vaguely familiar - that possible (re the IDE i/f) ?

Can't honestly be sure...

I know that the 3010 was sold as a home/gaming machine without HD (but could, of course, had had the connectivity in place) whereas the 3020 was sold as a 'business' machine and did come with an integral HD.

The 3020 has the IDE interface. A3000 & 3010 do not.
They need an IDE mini-podule.

And IDE mini-podules are as rare as a rare thing!

The A3020 is very very picky with IDE-SD card adapters. If it's not the now rare 2-chip SD adapter then in all likelihood it won't work. CF adapters are a little easier to make work but again the A3020 is picky with the cf card you try with it.
