RE: Personnal Data Warehouse

[Stuart Poulton <swp@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We've not had any problems with the 8 drive system, other than not
having a big enought power supply to start with.

I've got no temp data on a 33 drive system, it's very much a paper
concept only.
If someone would give me 12K I'd try it, I can say that CERN use the
same case and raid controllers to do 22 drives

Cheers

Stuart
