Any one want to buy my Quantum Empire 2100 for $800, it's less than 120 days old, as I am now going to sell it off and go buy 4 very fast 500MB drive and make a stripe driver out of this code :-). The drive has a 5 year warranty, so it's not like your buying a very used drive. Or make me an offer if you think $800 is too much for it. My DAT drive should be in next week so I am not worried about disk failure causing me to lose data with stripped disks. I have read the code in stripe.tar, it should be a day or twos work to get it up and running under FreeBSD. -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Custom computers for FreeBSD
