At work, we've a big cage for SCSI disks, both for our Compaq PCI servers and another for one of our HP-9000s. I was just thinking of a case that could hold 10 or 12 with power supply (or supplies). I suppose if there's to be ONE data cable it's got to be a hardware RAID solution.... Perhaps I just need to pile them up in a big tower case (or two or three :) - maybe with a big hard drive in addition... Of course, a development LEAF box with a 650M hard drive would be smokin' :) -- David Douthitt UNIX Systems Administrator HP-UX, Unixware, Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
