$1000 including | HDSIBM18G10K | 18G IBM 10k rpm U160 SCSI | 2 | | SCAD29160 | Adaptec 29160 U160 SCSI card | 1 | Not bloody likely! You're looking at ~$400 for each of the drives, and there are two of them. It's then like another $150 for the controller. That system is quite nice, and the price was not bad at all. SCSI disks are worth the extra money (especially for 10k RPM). noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
