PE 2600 SCSI Drives

[Jeff Boyce]

Greetings -

I am looking for an additional drive for a PE2600.  My search through the 
Dell support site does not find a drive type and size that I currently have 
in the system.  My objective is to add another drive to my Samba file server 
to increase our storage space.  My server is currently configured with three 
36GB drives in Raid 5 and one hot spare.  The Raid is not configured with 
LVM.  I do have OMSA installed.  The PE2600 is our only server; and it is 
running RH3.  The drives that are currently in it are 36.7GB, 15k RPM, Ultra 
320, 80-pin, Dell Part # 341-1430.

Does anyone have a recommendation for another supplier that would have what 
I am looking for?  I have always purchased my drives through Dell, so I am 
not familiar with other reliable options/suppliers that might be available. 
I am generally a novice (part-time) Linux administrator (full time forester) 
for a small business, so if there are other options to achieve my objective, 
I am open for suggestions.  Thanks.
