Internal Drive for Model 930 - SCSI

Internal Drive for Model 930 - SCSI

Post by Rincy Isaa » Sat, 01 Aug 1992 02:50:29



I would be interested to hear from anyone (especially from those who
have an RS/6000 Model 930).  

We've got one that came pre-installed with 2 670MB SCSI drives in the
top drawer.  There is one slot free.  I wanted to add another internal
disk in there, but the folks here say only 2 disks are allowed in the
current configuration.  

I am told that I could add another CD-ROM with no problem!  This means,
to add more disk capacity I'd have to buy another disk drawer!

Has anybody heard of this.  Do you know why?  Thanks in advance.

1. Internal SCSI drives - Model 930

I am reposting this, because I screwed up on the distribution the last
time...  Pardon me, if this has been asked before.

We have a Model 930, the top drawer of which has 2 670MB SCSI drives.
I was planning to add a 3rd internal SCSI disk, BUT.. I am being told
that I could only have up to 2 disk drives, and 3 CD-ROMs, etc.  I do
have an empty slot!

Why would it make a difference if I had 5 SCSI disks and no CD-ROMs?  

Bottom line is that I'll have to get another SCSI drawer (gripes!) for
our hard disk needs!?
