I am about to expand the disk storage on a 4/110 used as a server. A vendor suggests an Emulex DAT15-760 650 Mb SCSI disk at a very attractive price. Any comments/experience of this disk on a similar configuration ? -- Alain <fauconne@frsim51.bitnet>

You'll be much happier to spend the extra money and buy a disk that is directly supported in the Sun format program. Sun plays many little games with their devices (open-systems is a myth) and you'll usually run into many of these problems if you stray beyond the support list of products. If you have the system integration skills go ahead. I didn't know they made disks. I would make the deal such that I could return the disk within 2 weeks if I couldn't get it working correctly.
