	This one has passed by before but I lost the messages.
	Can anyone give me info on a good third party distributor
	for external hard disks for a 4D/20? 

	What is entailed in installing it?  Can I just plug it into
	the SCSI port, configure the system for it, and let it ride?
	Will I need to give it a power supply or do they generally
	come with one?

	Also, (hope this isn't a dumb question but I just got out
	of rehab.) what's the main difference between the 4D/20 and
	the 4D/25?  From what I've gathered, the "25" is an upgrade
	of the "20"(?).


	Does everyone have IRIX-3.2 already or is it still going out
	to us unlucky few?

	Please email me if you can, I've already wasted enough bandwith 
	as it is.  If you don't I suppose there's already enough bozos
	posting to some worthless newsgroup that it won't matter, 
	so post it!

			Thanks a bunch for your responses (IA),
