Lamont] | I would like to chime in here and say that we've lost 2 Quantums (possibly | 3, one's been acting up.), one HP, a Seagate "IMPRIMIS" (differential | SCSI), and a seagate hawk. The ONLY manufacturer I've been consistently | satisfied with is (drum roll.......) digital. We have two, both of which | are fairly high volume servers (one's in a news spool.) One has operated | for a year without problems, one has operated for almost 4 years without | problems. Compare that with the HP that lasted us less than 2 months. Good for you, but DEC's disk division was bought by Quantum. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug@nethelp.no
