I've recently installed MP3 jukebox software and - you've guessed - now face
a declining disc space problem!

I've thought about adding a large SCSI disc to my system (Mac 9600) but I'm
confused about the practical size limit and the variants of SCSI. SCSI is
also pricey.

The alternative (I think) is to add an ATA card and cheap ATA hard disc
drives - maybe even go for a software RAID configuration. The questions
are: Does this work? What ATA interface card would work with linux?

Hope you can help.
