I am assembling a new system to run FreeBSD. The proposed hardware currently consists of : Asus P6RP4 Pentium Pro 200 motherboard 64 megs RAM Asus SC200 SCSI controller I had originally wanted to get a 4.3 GB hard drive for this system but the price (900-1000) is prohibitive. I am therefore considering 2-3 1.0-1.6 GB drives at 250-300 each (all prices are USD). Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations to make about this idea? Any favorite drives to recommend? I am also looking for suggestions for a tape backup at a reasonable price. All comments and suggestions are welcome as I am not very familiar with SCSI peripherals. Thanks, Frank -- Only in America can a homeless veteran sleep in a cardboard box while a draft dodger sleeps in the White House. <unknown>
