I have space, but I have some fairly wicked SCSI disks that I'd rather 
see fully realize their potential.  What I'd most like to do is put in a 
Sun-friendly SCSI card (I have none) that will fully exploit my hard 
disks' potential. i.e. use the internal disks & backplane, preferably 
with a better controller.
