Or not what I need. Rather, I couldn't quite get it to do what I want. It did give me the clues I needed to do it myself which for me is good enough. Got the two StarTech docks. Sticking with eSATA for these. The ASRock board supports eSATA hotplug when the ports are set to eSATA mode in the firmware. Spinning platters are the I/O limit here (~110-115 MB/s sustained write) so it came down to the fact that the USB/SATA bridge (JMicron) passes a string of zeroes as the drives' serial numbers so only one appears in /dev/disk/by-id at a time. So yeah. Done. Good little project. In particular I really like the Node 304 case. The design leaves a lot of open space above the motherboard and the sides are wide open with the cover removed. The only time it felt cramped to work in was when I was plugging in the eSATA bracket cables because I didn't want to dismantle the power supply. -- Rich P. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
