Has anyone bought a 4/490, added a SCSI host adapter and then used SCSI
disks?  In particular 1.2 Gbyte disks from HP or Seagate?  Or any other
SCSI disks.  If so, did you have any problems?  Sun does not support this
configuration (because they want to force you to buy IPI drives, I guess),
but being able to use SCSI disks would sure be nice.

Thanks,
