I'd like to add that once you get at least a SCSI card for the GS, you can
get a wide array of different used hard drives nice and cheap for her.
Right now, my GS has an external 30 MB SCSI hard drive attached. The case
says UltraDrive-30, and inside is just a plain garden variety 30MB Quantum
ProDrive. I just recently paid a couple dollars for a 1GB Fujitsu M-
2694ESA that I plan on transferring into the Ultradrive case, and that
should provide plenty of hard drive storage for my GS. If you don't mind
the "thrill of the hunt", check out your local thrift stores and used
computer stores. You should be able to find used SCSI drives dirt cheap,
as well as used SCSI cables for a buck or two.
