The Exxos shop sells pretty much every upgrade or repair you'll need to make your Atari ST everything you remember and more.
I personally recommend the Centuriontech GoEx floppy disk drive emulator as the single best upgrade you can give your Atari ST. Most games and applications are floppy disk images and this plugs directly where the floppydisk drive goes, it is the perfect fit, no case cutting, it uses the defacto-standard FlashFloppy firmware.
Other upgrades, an ACSI HDD emulator, there are a remarkable number of HDD adaptions thanks to PeraPutnik and DBug so a HDD is a cool thing to have on an ST that you probably didn't have back in the day. Exxos sells one and you can also get them from Sidecartridge
Connecting your ST to a modern monitor the best upgrade is an RGB2HDMI adapter, this goes internally and you need some skill to fit (no soldering) but it is 100% the best picture quality being 100% digital. If you didn't want to do that, Exxos sells a monitor port to VGA adapter which will work with a range of modern monitors that have VGA inputs that support 15KHz e.g. Dell SE2722H
If you wanted a new mouse I strongly recommend mouSTer USB adapter which can also be a joypad adapter too.
