True, but for currently supported hardware I'd expect them to make an
effort to fix the problem *Sigh* but i'm just silly that way i guess :)

Congrats :) the SS1 can take any 50-pin 3.5" scsi drive. Do youi want
another 200 MB drive? I probably have 1 or 2 laying around here that were
good the last time i fired them up, and they should also have sunos 4.1.4
on them (solaris 1.1.2) you could have them for shipping costs.
