10 whole mb HDD, I remember it well. It's amazing what we run against with 
the S2 or S3 and compare it now with my BBS using a SCSI combo of 4, 18, 36gb 
and a 60gb IDE. I run all the company accounts, magazine subscriptions, 
Cobol, Basic & C compilers all on a 10mb HDD before changing it to the 96Mb 
Dec drive.
Mind you backup was to a 8" floppy. I still have some of the odd cable sets 
for linking serial & parallel ports and other odds'n'sods in a box. Something 
else to clear out at some point.
