I'm considering the purchase of a IIsi.  My only reservation, though,
is the IIsi's single expansion slot.  I'd like to save money by buying
the 3/40M configuration and then ordering more third-party RAM. 
Eventually, however, I suspect I'll need more disk capacity.  I'd like
to avoid using the si's only expansion slot for a hard disk, which brings
me to my question: Does anyone have any advice to offer about using 
SCSI disks with the IIsi?  I haven't seen any SCSI disks offered for sale,
so I don't even know how they compare in price to other hard disks.  Also,
am even correct in assuming that I'll have to use the si's expansion
slot to add a-non SCSI external hard drive?

Thanks,
Jeff
