- I'm new to this, but what I seem to be getting from what I'm reading about
- the CMD hard drives, is you can put any SCSI HD into the case and it will
- work? Why would I want to pay for a HD-500 when I could buy an HD-40 and
- daisy-chain another drive, or simply replace the 40 meg with something
- larger? Aside from voiding the warranty, of course, which I assume would
- be the case. Any input on this is appreciated, even from you, Doug. :)
