	We're planning on putting together a large CD-ROM AppleShare
server.  We're currently looking at something like a SE-30 with an internal
Apple 80 or 160 Mbyte drive and 6 Apple CD-ROM drives (I originally speced
a Quantum-105 and Toshiba CD drives, but artificial contraints forced an
all-Apple system).  Has anybody ever tried having 7 SCSI disks on a Mac?
It's supposed to be possible, but I know all sorts of strange things have
been known to happen on SCSI busses with more than a couple of devices.
