[comp.sys.sun] Using a non-Sun drive in an SS 1

schanin@uunet.uu.net (06/05/91)

	I have a sparc with only one 105 meg drive.  I need more disk.
I was thinking about buying another internal 105.  If I buy it from
Sun, it will cost a bundle.  If I buy it from a third party, I'll pay
about $330.  I opened up the sparc and examined the existing drive.
It seems to be a standard Quantum Pro105.  If I buy a Quantum P105
from a third party, plug it in and format it, should I expect it to
work.  Is there any reason to buy a drive from sun?

Thanks,
Steve
