I recently purchased a nics black big-tower to put my tape drive in.
I got a large one because I plan to add more disks and perhaps some
386 board as a terminalserver (we will see...)

I worked a bit on the slots to make the SCSI connectors (50p. Centr.)
fit and added a connector for daisy-chaining. 
I took a cable from friend (some old Sparc-Cable) and it works fine.

I can't complain.

regards, Bjoern
