We have a Sun386i/250 equiped with a 91 Mb disk and a 60Mb cartridge tape
in a peripheral box. We have almost exhausted the disk (no surprise) and
would like to add a bigger disk (322Mb or even 600Mb). Sun wants $6600
(retail) for a 322Mb disk, but I am sure that we could do much - but much-
better than that. If you have added a third party disk to your 386i,
please let me know your experience. thoughts recommendations and/or
caveats. Thanks!

PS. Even with 35% educational discount, the price seems to me way too
high for a disk to be housed in that peripheral box.
