My department is looking at Removable Optical Disk Drives for backup of a
Sun 4/280 (soon to be a 4/490 we hope) and a Vax 11/750.  We want to hang
the drive off of the Sun.  Any information on this will be helpful,
especially references from people using these systems.

Our needs justify getting 1 5.25 in. disk drive. We will be providing the
SCSI port.  In evaluating the system, I am looking a several things
including price, reliablity, recomendations of current users, ease of use,
financial stablity of the vender.

If you have information, please mail it to me at
