I'm running a 3.5Mb, 67Meg 3b1, Unix 3.0, and I want to put at least
one more hard drive on it.  I think it is *theorhetically* possible,
we did it with a Motorola S8000 w/ no problems.  Just stuck it on the
open card, and did a mount.  Well, there was more to it than that, but...

Specifically:
1. Has anybody out there tried this?  An AT&T Service d00d told me
   "Well, I've seen people do some strange things to these machines"
   but wouldn't elaborate...

2. If the drive's SCSI, which I think it is, how can I get unix to
   recognize more than the 65 megs that it does?  I have a 72Mb
   Hitachi in this one, that's 7 more megs than I'm 'allowed'.

3. If I do crank this up to two or more HD's, at what price?  Will
   the rest of my system grind to a halt while waiting on daisy
   chained hard drives?

Note that I'm not a hardware genius, and would prefer a "Buy part X,
unhook your drive, hook up part X, your drive, and the new drive and reboot"
answer...:-)
