i acquired a sun 80 pin fujitsu drive to put in the seconf slot in an
ultra 1. to my surprise, it didn't fit the rails for inserting the
second rive. i propped it up, and it works just fine.

how do i tell if an 80pun scsi drive will fit those rails?

is there some sort of piece which locks the drive into place, similar
to the one on the first drive in slot 0? if so, where do i find that
piece. or else, are there shims which make smaller drives fit?

P/N is 540-3024, called a spud bracket. Look on ebay for it.

The drive requires a "spud" bracket to fit correctly. Search for "sun
spud" on ebay. You can find plenty there. Here is an example :
