Terry Lambert >> Seagate have just released a 23.4 Gbyte HD, and we are looking at them to >> supplement our multiple 9GB HD's we currently use for our FTP server. >> >> Will freebsd allow a file system this large ??? > >This drive is not on their web site. > >Where did you get the information, and is there a www resource for it? > Terry Lambert > terry@lambert.org Try looking at http://www.seagate.com/new/newtop.shtml then select "Seagate Ships First-Generation Ultra-SCSI Disc Drives" In that article it says: In addition to the Hawk 2XL, Seagate's high-performance, 7,200-rpm Barracuda 9 and Barracuda 4LP disc drives will feature Ultra-SCSI interfaces while also being the first Seagate disc drives to ship in volume with the FC-AL interface. Seagate's Elite 23, the industry's first 23-Gbyte disc drive, will likewise support both interface standards. The article also talks about Fiber Channel (FC-AL) which sounds way cool. No mention anywhere else about the drive so it is unclear when seagate will ship. David Langford langfod@dihelix.com
