# This is really interesting. This is the first time I heard about a hidden
# disk in the 3100. Does anybody know more about this disk? How small (or
# big) is it? 10MB? 

They call the internal disk an RZ23.  I don't know where it is in the product
line, or whether it even made it into the product line :-), or how much it
costs.  They're useful for swap space.  About 100MB each, I think, with room
for two of them in my prototype (check with your salesman for better details).

They're 3.5-inch SCSI drives.

Disclaimer: I don't speak for DEC, I just work here.  Don't quote me, don't
hold me or DEC to any promises I seem to have made, etc, etc, etc.
