Subject: Need space - ESDI/SCSI conflicts?

I have a client who purchased a IBM Model 80-071 with a second 71 Meg
ESDI drive.  They are running SFT Netware v2.15 and they have already
run out of space.  They are currently mirroring the two drives and
would like to continue to do so.  Now, it is obvious that they need
more space and they were thinking of getting larger SCSI drives.
I have heard that Netware has a problem with having both ESDI and
SCSI controllers in the fileserver.  They certainly don't want to
scrap both ESDI drives if they don't have to.  Does anyone know if
this is true?  I would also appreciate any recommendations on disk
drive subsystems.  They will be probably looking at two 300 Meg
SCSI drives.

Thanks.
