System Forsale



Derek,

Can you say anything about the reliability/performance of the IBM drive or 
SCSI card you mentioned below? I have an older PowerEdge server whose 
drives I'd like to upgrade, but have never been able to find an affordable 
SCSI drive(s) for it. $145 almost sounds too cheap. And my system uses the 
Adaptec 788x series adapter (it's either 50 or 68 pin), so I guess I'd need 
an adapter to use the drive mentioned? Thanks for any help.

Drew
