Hi all
Does anyone have any experience using Orb removable drives with linux?
They have both SCSI and EIDE verisons. The capacity is about 2 GB.
They are made by Castlewood Systems, Inc.
Performance is not a major issue, reliability is, both drive and media.
I am thinking about using them in some systems used for sys admin training.
We need to be able to boot from them. OS's will be installed and configured
on them. We presently use fixed SCSI drives (3 of them per server) but
are running out of space due to increasing enrollments. We would use
the internal SCSI model.
OS's used are Linux, UnixWare, NetWare, Win98, WinNT and Win2000.
Tell me your stories.
paul
ps-
I have read the review in dec 99 linux journal. That was based
on the parallel port model.
