- We run 2 ESDI discs and 1 SCSI disc in our server with no problem.
- Two things though, one, make sure your power supply can handle the load
- and two, get a different reseller! BTW, I'm about to add another SCSI
- disc giving me 3.4 Gigabyte of total disc space and the only change I've
- had to make is to upgrade the power supply to a 450 watt.
