- I am looking at getting a new Indigo and need about 1G of disk. 3rd party
- prices even for internal drives are more attractive than SGI prices. Aside from
- potential support problems during the generous 90 day warrantee, are there any
- problems getting a 3rd party drive up and running (assuming firmware etc. are
- compatible - I mean initialization and making it bootable)?
