The only drives I recall Tandy offering for the T2k were 10 Mb.

Newer or not, your only real choice is still ST506/MFM units.
Somebody was once working on a way to attack SCSI drives via the
Bernoulli Box interface, I never heard of any success, unlike
Bob Snapp's work with the Tandy 6000.

You're not going to get much use out of a larger drive, either.
Remember that you're stuck with MS-DOS 2.11 on the Tandy 2000.
