We have some 4D's and some PI, and want to move memory and disk drives from the some of the 4D's to the PI's. I realize that ESDI disks cannot be controlled by SCSI controllers, but aside from that, what cannot be taken from a 4D and put into a PI? We were told that the disk drives could not be transferred. Is there any problem with the SCSI disks on the 4D's being moved to PI's? What about memory?

From what I have heard you should be able to use any SGI SCSI drive from any 4D to another 4D (PI's are 4D20's) I am almost positive you can't exchange the memory from/to a 4D20 to something other than a 4D20. -- Brent L.
