Ho) Newsgroups: comp.sys.sun Subject: optifloppy drive info ? Keywords: Hardware Message-ID: <4036@kalliope.rice.edu> Date: 25 Jun 89 02:48:16 GMT Sender: usenet@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 19 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 8, Issue 45, message 4 of 4 Does anyone out there has had any experience with using any optifloppy drives hooked to a Sun server for an extended period of time -- mainly using it as a system disk (mostly storing system stuff like system binaries/source/databases and some boot files) in conjunction with SMD disks (mostly to swap and to store user files) ? I'm mainly interested in reliability & feasibility issues in server configurations. I'm also interested in knowing what some of the nice features & pains that you may have experienced but not have anticipated before. Any pointers will be much appreciated.
