Compaq ML370 G1 Storage Options

[lundrog]

I have a Compaq ML370 G1 that I would like to use as a web / file server.


Currently i have three 18.2 gb drives, but that only totals 36 gb's in raid 5.


What are some options for adding either larger internal or external storage do this device?

I need it to be raid 1 or raid 5.

I have three drive bays open, but I would like to keep the cost fairly low, as the device is out of warranty.

Thanks

Any idea if HP still sells the above parts?

Our distributor lists the 72 gig drive part number as active. A quick search on Google showed it to be available from a number of sources between $125-$250 each. Not too bad for a server HD.
