With SCSI you will get better performance from 2 670MB drives than from
a single 1GB drive.

They work (we set up a system for a client with a seagate 1GB).  NO problems
with the setup or since delivery.  The only thing to remember is that
file system mount/unmount time will be very long when ISC reads the free
list unless you fill up the drive.
