Cheap shared storage?

Hi all,

I want to improve our test environment to a cluster setup.
Currently a DS10 and a AS1200 run standalone. The AS1200
has 160GB internal disk space.

I have an unused RA3000 and disks. Can I convert this to be
used on a shared SCSI bus? Which SCSI controller would I need?

Other ideas to get a cheap cluster running are also welcome!

Both machines do have a KGPSA, but I want to get as much of
the test environment out of the expensive FC SAN as I can.

thanks
