It would be a lot better if they were in separate controllers, if you're running 40MBps SCSI. For the 80MBps above you can share at least 2 drives per controller. The object of the exercise is to make sure that the bus doesn't become a bottleneck assuming a drive can churn out 33-40MBps from platter to the underlying drive electronics. > > > 'jopoy > > > ----------------------- > University of Baguio > General Luna Road > Baguio City > Philippines 2600 > Phone: +63(74)442-3540 > Fax: +63(74)442-3071 > http://www.ubaguio.edu > > > -- > Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) > Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph > Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph > . > To leave, go to http://lists.q-linux.com/mailman/listinfo/plug > . > Are you a Linux newbie?
