Hi,

I have the opportunity to get a SunFire210 machine from my work,
loaded with Dual CPU, 2GB ram, and dual 73GB drives. This is perfect
for a potential usage I have at home.

The problem is that the machine doesn't have a DVD.

Another thing: It might be possible to build a standard slimline IDE-drive
into this machine. Those things are fairly cheap on ebay. I haven't tried
that, though, you might want to ask the people in comp.sys.sun.hardware
about this.
