A bit of an oddball request, and apologies if this is not kosher for this list. I have quite a few old-but-still-working hard disks lying about, from 2.1GB to 500GB. I also have an old P3 machine lying about and was wondering if I could put them to use to get a "toy" media server out of it and in the process get some actual experience with doing fun things like flipping a hard disk's power supply on and off while writing data to a RAID. Problem is that the number of drive bays is far smaller than the 4 hard disks I want to fit inside. I've seen aluminium brackets that can be screwed into a 5.25" drive bay that can hold a 3.5" hard disk. Anyone know where I can buy some of those? Also, I'd prefer to stay with Linux but ZFS sounds absolutely awesome, though I know that anything solaris is dead. Am considering Nexenta. Does anything LVM-ish or similar compare? Cheers Aniruddha Shankar
