The Ecrix drives are rated pretty high among users of this list. (for the
cheaper drives that is)
http://www.ecrix.com/
they offer a 30gb capacity and the total cost is somewhat realistic if you
are comparing it to the cost of a firewire drive. You'd probably spend about
twice what you would on a good firewire drive but have a much more secure
system in the long run.

firewire drive question

2001-02-12 Thread David Chokwenda

Hi,

Thanks for your email Irena.

I was thinking f setting up a second backup server to run on our 100MB
network router only. This would cater for our production machines (3
machines) which have total storage of 30GB. I was thinking of getting a 30G
firewire drive which i would run from our G4 - it would backup the other two
machines and then itself. What do you think?

Regards
David
