Previously, I posted a note here asking where I can get brackets to mount SCSI disks in my RS/6000 530. A kind gentleman from IBM sent me the part numbers but said that he was unable to obtain the brackets. The funny thing is that I had no trouble getting the brackets, given that I had the part numbers. I drove to the IBM parts department in downtown L.A. (fifteen minutes from Caltech) and was able to buy brackets from stock. IBM charges customers $25 service charge to place an order. I figured that I would buy extra brackets just in case, so I would only have to pay one service charge. So, the question is, does anybody need a bracket to add a SCSI disk to an IBM RS/6000 530? If so, I'll let them go for $30 each, I pay shipping. You'll have to provide a fan, but the are easy-to-obtain items. Tim
