Hi!

I have a MAC II (original beast) with the original 80MB hard drive and
am now running 2.0.1 A/UX (kudos to Apple on the ease of upgrading
from 2.0 via the ftp-able file!!!). I'd like to keep this
configuration, but add a larger, external hard drive to have both a
MAC OS and UNIX partitions. I've decided that at least another 100MB
drive would be the minimum size. If someone has done something
similar, I would be interested in hearing from you on:

	1. Brand of drive selected
	2. Installation problems (or non-problems).
	3. Cost (of course!).
	4. Caveat Emptors, etc.

I can be reached at:

Thanks, in advance, for any help.
