Perhaps the drives... but surely not the file systems. With 368 bytes of ram 
you won't have to try implementing any file system. I'm not sure if 768 bytes 
from the 18F4450 will suffice for a file system.

You need a bit of speed. That means to read a sector (512 byte) at once. I 
wouldn't try hard disk access with less than about 1500 bytes ram.
