Nope, just 10k rpm 36GB drives. (I called our VAR, too, and he said the
same thing.)
Ah, well, thanks all the same.
Sad but true: there's actually Sun promos for _multiple_ Netras for less
than the cost of a small external multi-pack for this 420! Since it's just a
catalog host for NBU, I may just try to get a 2-drive Netra.
