Hi Nathan,
Can you please elaborate on this?
And my question, on this same topic, would be, what is wrong with
using 2 standard servers (i.e. not a dedicated, expensive NAS device)
with 2 or 4 HDD's each, setup with something like DRBD / RedHat
Cluster Suite to offer one single redundant NAS / SAN server? Or, even
using something like http://www.openfiler.com/ or
http://www.freenas.org/ ?
