Ictually I'd bet that's most of the 5400rpm disks would be maxtor maxline II nearline drives, netapp also used then in several filers. They were the first 300GB drive by a couple of months and came with a 5 year warranty... I have several dozen of them, and for the most part there still working though the warranties are all expiring at this point. > _______________________________________________ > Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] > To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit > http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf > _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
