I will be putting together a 100gig scsi setup soon for a total cash
outlay of less than $100.  It will be using older drives that I picked
up for a song, and drive cases that I've collected from people getting
rid of them.  I could probably go to 200 gigs for $50 more before I
have to start building my own scsi cases to hold the drives.
