Well, here's the situation:
The machine is arriving to me in a day or so with _zero_ internal HD caddies.
I'm planning on getting a decent-sized 2.5" drive to put inside the machine, but
I need a caddy to put it in.
In the meantime, I do have an external disk that I can attach to the SCSI chain
to play around with, but the machine isn't truly portable until it can boot and
run without me lugging around an external drive.

I'd be happy w/ a displaced 1.2 gig drive, if it included a caddy. How much is
*lots*, anyway?
thanks
