Murgi
I have been here before and already got some hints regarding and old Compaq
Presario CDTV 528 (all in one piece model).
I don't really want to sink more money than the price for a LAN card into

Can You Use Generic SATA Drives in Compaq SATA RAID Arrays? by
Will
One of the nice features of the 4000 series fibre channel arrays was that
you could get away with using generic hotswap SCSI drives in the arrays, as
