Well, I've been collection information as I have a 'large' need for remote video surveillance. Here are the general approaches I've seen related to clustering and large data storage needs, from a cost-effective point of view: OPenmosix has some beta offerings that run on 2.6 based servers. >From the Linux Journal, May 2005 there is an article "Building a Bioinformatics Supercomputering Cluster" that may be of interest. Also from the Linux Journal, june 2005 it talks about ATA over Ethernet: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8201 I'd be interested in any other clustering or 'high availability' technologies you find for Gentoo.
