MrC - don't worry about it! I know a bit about storage due to my job, but am in no way an engineer and am always challenged by F/S issues and networking. As I said, your post was helpful.
What I meant by block level is that although SANmelody runs on Windows, it does not put any kind of signature on the disk. It is served as raw blocks. Therefore, it can create and serve disks to any operating system (well, any that has either a Fibre Channel or an iSCSI driver written for it) including Windows, Linux, various flavors of Unix, Novell, Mac, and even VMware. Each of those can use virtual disks as if you actually plugged a physical drive into it. -- ob_kook _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
