I currently have a Coraid SR1521 connected to three servers running CentOS. The only comment I would make is to make sure to get drives that are specifically supported by Coraid.

The Coraid unit is formatted as a single partition with GFS and is actively shared by all three servers. -- Bowie -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
