I currently have 40 drives and want to merge them all into a SAN here.
With the 1100 that leaves me room to add only 5 more drives. With the
2000 with the four channels I can get 20 more than what I have.
I went to dandelion's web-site it mentions that Leonard is working on
a new driver and that a beta should be out in a few weeks, however that
statement is months old so I was just checking if anyone here knew.
