And yet a lot of people pay a lot of money to Big Iron vendors to buy it and use it. Linux devs are rewriting ZFS just to change the license, and Microsoft are (as ever) stealing Sun's ideas and dumbing them down. So the gap between "nearly" and "totally" worthless is wide enough to spawn a whole sector of the industry... If you've ever lost a huge batch of work because you didn't do backups, you start doing backups. But a restore can take a long time and you're out of action while it happens. If you've ever been screamed at by a pointyhead because your restore is taking a while, you get redundant storage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pallfreeman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37667 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96124 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
