We are considering adding a gigabyte or two of disk storage to an RT.

Not having any experience in this, can someone make some recommendations?

We can manage to get the cover off and do things like install controller
cards.  No problem there.  What we are after isadvice on what disk vendor
to consider, what controller cards might work, and what doesn't work, etc.

Is SCSI available for the RT?  How about 1/2 inch tape drives?

Thanks for any leads, pointers, etc.
