We have two Exabytes (one is the 8500 model), two QIC drives (one is 60 MB
the other 150), a CDROM drive, a Wren VI, a SCSI printer and a SCSI 
scanner, all on one SparcServer 490.  We did have some problems until Sun
patches 100268-02 and 100280-01 were loaded, but all is well now.

We are using an extra SCSI controller and SunOs 4.1.1.  If you need the
patches and can`t get them locally let me know via email and I will forward
them to you.

				Good Luck
