I have recently acquired an SLC and am interested in obtaining a 300-600
MB hard disk and an appropriate tape unit so that it can be used as a
stand-alone workstation.  Obviously, you can buy this kind of system from
Sun, but I find their prices rather high, and coming from a Macintosh
background, I have a habit of *never* buying peripherals from the CPU
manufacturer.  Thus, I would appreciate any recommendations as to good
third parties to buy these kinds of peripherals from.
