I'm in Columbus, Ohio ~2-3 hours from Cincinnati. What did you have in mind?
I'm not personally interested in the units but I don't want them to be
scrapped either. By the way, are there any other known Ebay "Scrappers" to
be ware of?

There are a pair of these drives on eBay, with 10
hours
and a few minutes to go. The current high bidder is
a gold scrapper (jeepguymud), and he hacks up old
mainframes and sells gold parts on eBay. Anyone
in the Cincinatti area?
