I think the largest (old) 2.5" SCSI disk is 1.05Gb. If you can find a
drive sled for a Sparcbook with a larger drive, that will contain an IDE
<-> SCSI converter. You can then add a larger disk (my Sparcbook has a
4Gb disk now). I think the Sparcbook converters were made by ADTX. The
converters also come up as Mac items, as some of those had 2.5" SCSI
disks.
