Anyone have experience with third party 1Mb SCSI disks for the MIPS RC3360?
How reliable are they compared with the 663Mb CDC 94191?  How do they compare
for price against what MIPS supply (CDC 94601, I believe)?  For anything
other than the 94601, how straightforward is formatting and partitioning
(do you need a new disktab entry)?.  We want to use these disks on a system
running RISC/os 4.52.

Please send mail, and I'll summarise.

	Thanks in Advance,

		Mark.
