The Kingstons are fine provided you do not attempt to integrate them yourself. I'm fairly unhappy with most of the RAID products out there at this point. Hitachi looks to have some interesting stuff. Artecon as some really slow, lame stuff. Symbios has some fairly good, but lame interfacing stuff. Call Gary Evans at UniSolutions (713.552.0505). They have an email address as well (unisol@ix.netcom.com) but I remember it not being frequently checked. Gary knows his stuff and will be albe to do disk integration for you, and offer suggestions on RAID solutions as well. They've been doing this stuff for a long time and your project requirements are probably on the small end of the kind of things they do. :) -- | Matthew N.
