Hi, FC3 Tyan Tiger Dual AMD Adaptec Firewire Controler CoolDrives Dual Master two bay hotswap enclosure with the Initio bridge I've given firewire a fair shake. With my hardware it is unreliable. SBP2 is forever spiting out error messages. Hotswap events hang the SCSI bus and force power cycling. Has anyone used or got opinions on IDE to SCSI convertors? Here's a link to what I'm looking at http://www.addonics.com/news/media/2002/100202cnet.asp I intend to modify the Cooldrives enclosure by removing the firewire bridges and replacing them with the SCSI convertors. I'll run the enclosure off one channel of my ICP Vortex GDT8543RZ four channel RAID controler. I expect grey skies to turn blue, bankers to offer low interest loans and tickets for sporting events. It's to much to expect a social life so I'll reserve some optimism. Am I an idiot? ron ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Sports Rekindle the Rivalries.
