Hmm, I don't think he means how to prep the disk, but where to actually place the hdd inside the A500 cabinet.
@AMIGAZ
If you remove the metal shield covering the motherboard, I think you should be able to place the hdd on top of the chips, but place the harddrive on a piece of hard plastic so the hdd doesn't touch any of the motherboard components.
If you have a slimline floppy drive in the A500 you could also place the hdd under the floppy, but you most likely have one of the big sized floppy drives. It could be changed though.
