are these IDE or scsi-2 or scsi-3 ???
why do they have so many disks ?

if IDE....it's a bad deal...brand new 10Gb IDE is running about $250 range
with 3-5yr manufacturers warranty

if it's scsi-2/3...than it's a good deal if the manufacturer's warranty
is still valide ( ie no open disk drives )....
	brand new 12Gb-scsi3 drives run about $700

- let me know if these are scsi-3 drive...
 ( usually don't care about manufacturers brand for on-sale items, and
 ( if regular prices, I prefer ibm/fujitsu/hp drives )

have fun
