Neither the A3000 or A3010 had an internal hard disc or an option to add one. The Castle A30x0 IDE interface enables a 2.5-inch laptop hard disc to be fitted. In this case the hard disc is a Seagate 130MB Marathon 130sl (ST9150AG).

The installation instructions are available HERE.

Support is still available from Castle and there is a troubleshooting FAQ on the Castle website.
