Plug in two 40 MB SCSI external hard disks and metadisk (like RAID 0) them together. Good ol' daisy-chaining those giant Centronics/DB50 to DD-50 expensive/proprietary cables. Just don't kick a hard drive's wall wort or it'll be fsck-ing for the next hour.

PS: I was the sysadmin for a lab with a Sun 4, Sun SPARCstation 20, AIX, SCO and HP-UX boxes. There were some Linux and Windows 3.1/NT boxen too. All networked together, each had a valid IP from a routable Class C and named after Simpson characters.
