within the size range that Sridhar was 
 referring to but my MVII had dual Maxtor XT-8380E (380MB, ESDI, 
 5-1/4" FH) drives installed when I got it.  One has since been pulled 
 to act as a spare and replaced in the BA23 with a TK50.  
 I have a 5.25"-tall, rackable box with two 5.25" full-height 1.2Gb ESDI
 drives (plus room for two more) and an ESDI<->SDI converter (and room
 for one more).  I forget the maker, but it was one of the companies
 that used to make add-on disks and the like 10 years ago (MBA Systems
 Automation?)

 It's much quieter and reliable than my RA81. 
  Ahhh, I have about four subsystems exactly like that made by Systems
Industries.  They are *wonderful*.  I even have the docs. :-)
