I should receive a NeXTStation Turbo B/W 8/250 within days, and I
am thinking to buy an external DAT (Archive Python) and a large HD
(Fujitsu 3.5" 2694 1.2 Gig).

I am also thinking to pull out the original 250 and sell it on the
net to recoup some cash, but, for variuos reasons, I would like to
keep the Fujitsu in the external enclosure, not in the the Station.
The difference in price between the enclosure for the DAT only and
the enclosure for the DAT and the HD is only $25, and the extra
flexibility is worth it (to me).

Is this possible?  Reasonable? Advisable?

PS
Does anybody want to buy a more-than-new (it's not even here yet!) 250 HD? :-)
