I assume there will be no problem using a newer SCSI drive, but when it
will be installed is at the convenience of The DomainOS manager.
Logistics include moving the files from one drive to the other.  If both
can be installed in the machine, copying will be easy.  If tar archives
need to made, it will be slower.  Maybe we'll install in another machine
and ftp the files over before switching HD's.  If it is possible to do,
I'm sure it will done within a month.  Dave F. may tell me to forget it.
I haven't talked to him or asked him yet about swapping HD's.  But he has
always been cooperative.
