We have two Encore Multimaxes here, and are in need of more disk space
for  one  of  them.   This  machine  currently has:

        1.4Gbytes of Encore supplied disk, hung off
        2         Encore LDC-01 disk controllers, hung off
        1         EMC-III

We  are  wondering  if anyone has ever used 3rd party disks.  Are they
useable, cheaper, reliable?

Please  send  me your experiences by e-mail.  I will summarize to this
news group.

Thanks in advance..

Chris Ritson.
