You've got most of the hardware already.  Look in magazines like 'Computer
Shopper' for good deals on SCSI hard drives (not hard drive systems).  For
the $500 your dealer wants, you can probably get a 40meg or 60 meg drive.
Buy the new drive, remove the old one from the case, install the new, and
your ready to go.
