Yes - it's a brand new installation of NetBSD.

It seems to chug right along..  Just trying to see what I can do to improve
performance if I decide to use it as a web server or something of the sort.
It's no speed deamon, but I think a lot can be attributed to how slow that
old hdd is.

I do have a spare scsi 2 hdd with a 2 to 1 adaptor - would this work as a
secondary hdd?

Thanks again,
