I don't need any, but if anyone can get their hands on JBOD boxes that use 
these, they're fantastic drives.

I was lucky enough to get several Andataco 3-Drive JBOD boxes (I passed on the 
7-drive units as to big, heavy, noisy, and power hungry).  These are great for 
OpenVMS/Alpha and Sun systems, and provide a cheap way to get decent sized SCSI 
drives, as most people can't use them.  I had a couple of the 3-Drive units and 
a DEC BA350 shelf running in our dining room for several years (the BA350 was 
on a VAX).

My most recent score was some brand new 300GB SCA drives. :-)  They'll allow me 
to take my Alpha down to two HD's and drastically shrink its power requirements.
