well, with my hitachi scsi drives droping like flies (sorta, lost two this month), i'm a bit leary going with them, though the thought of big storage sounds cool.

:giggle: @ brew: i just had a moment of...well...i just had a moment :)

Dude, I have never had a single problem with my Hitachi drives. They have outlasted my segates even.

The new SATA Hitachi drives are amazingly fast and probably the best drives on the market right now. As for your SCSI issues, can't comment, maybe they spend more time making a better SATA drive instead...hehe.

i'll make you a deal, bill. the lsi 320-2e is new, with the itbbu (battery backup), and six scsi 15k rpm 16 meg cache 36gig drives. it's meant for high redundancy/traffic i/o, and just sleeps as a stand alone desktop storage setup...

lol MO doesn't care about that... (He's the same guy who has 8 cores to play Solitaire and Minesweeper) It's like guys with big cars: they don't need it but it makes them happier because it compensates for their lack of size in another area... :D
