A quick little note of "Wow!" to pass on: I just bought a 4U rackmount server case for my company. The darn thing can take up to 16 3.5" hard drives, -and- a 5.25" slim-line CD-ROM -and- a 3.5" slim-line floppy drive. It's got really nice design, lots o' fans for your cooling, etc. Of course, it's not cheap ($1500, before CD-ROM and floppy), but it's one of the nicest cases I've ever seen, regardless of vendor. The one I'm talking about is an IDE model; they also have a SCSI. I'm planning on putting eight drives in with a 3Ware controller initially, with room to expand if/when required. Check it out at http://www.servercase.com/ImageFiles/SC4D.html . Note one thing -- they say "Only works with IBM or Seagate." I asked them why, and they responded that it was a problem with the connectors not mating properly on other drives. Well, I took the plunge, and bought it anyway. So far, at least, it seems to be fitting my Maxtor 160's just fine. If I run into any issues, I'll be sure to let you guys know.
-Ken P.S. I know that other vendors sell the same box, but this was both the cheapest, most comprehenseive, and most responsive vendor that I found. ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
