Non-standard drives on a 3030

[uucp]

Hi:
 We've currently got a 3030 with two 170MB ESDI drives, and need more space.
As it happens, I know someone who is willing to give us a trade-in for one of
our 170s if we buy a 380 from them. Has anyone done something like this?
do you know of any problems with this? 
 (SGI's "support" people took the fifth when I started asking questions
about this).
  We really could use the extra space, but buying an eagle is out of the 
question ($$), and SGI isn't likely to have an official 300MB drive for some
time yet.
