Sorry for the late reply, but ....

The EXP-2 (in case you haven't popped the cover off yet) has room for 2 5 1/4
full height SCSI devices in it. The connectors at the back are Sun's SCSI-I
version aka DB-50....
I seem to recall Sun 3's and 4xx series machines having SCSI interfaces with
DB-50connectors....
Disk capacity will depend on what is in the box ... ;-})
I've seen Sun 370mb, 670mb disks, Exabyte 8200 and QIC-?? 150mb tapes in the
bottom......
I've also used them for newer SCSI disks; the power supplies and fans are
plenty adequate.....
