I've evaluated in depth several solutions for the home-NAS: Openfiler, FreeNAS, Windows 2003 and Longhorn Server beta, and most recently Windows Home Server. And now I'm trying out Solaris. The problems with Solaris for me so far are driver support and ease of administration. Driver support

If you want a NAS, why do you care what GNOME does? Webfrontend maybe, but not a GUI. And read the manpages, they're accurate and updated often. On 18/03/07, MC [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The problems with Solaris for me so far are driver support and ease of administration. Driver support is

This is not correct. Solaris Nevada introduces the sata framework in build 32, and so far there are already several sata framework-compliant hba drivers including marvell88sx, si3124 and ahci. These drivers support controllers' SATA native mode. I used PSARC 2006/384 SATA AHCI HBA

Ian, Thanks, I tried running device detection tool, but it only runs on certain versions of Linux or on Windows, so it would not run on my system. If I need a newer system for Solaris than that is sad news indeed. It is not much different then Vista in that regard. So I will have to wait for
