Hi David,

>It is a Maxtor LXT 213 Sy

>Can anyone tell me:

>a) Should it work with the IPC?

Yes, it's a standard SCSI drive.

>b) What capacity is it?

210 meg. The LXT-213 and a few other types are a standard drive size used by
Sun quite a few years ago. 

The only thing to watch out for is heat output, since early Maxtor's
produced a lot of it.

Regards,

Craig.
