X-BeenThere: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: General discussion of FreeBSD hardware List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2004 16:03:02 -0000 First off, thanks to all for their experiences between Seagate and Hitachi ... they were invaluable ... Right now, we're looking at a Chenbro Dual 500W chassis for the new server ... on a whim, I checked with CCIS about their RC-0222 chassis, since there were the comments about the Chenbro backplane and such ... the cost comes out to be about $400 more for the CCIS chassis, but am wondering whether anyone here has had experiences with that chassis? Is it $400 well spent? Or does it make no difference, Chenbro is just as good? Thanks ... ---- Marc G.
