Hello! I have an application here which requires a large (starting at 2.5GByte and expandable to say 20GByte) online storage, so it suggests an erasable optical disk. I intend to mount it on a SUN-3/260 and use it as a single filesystem (eg /archive /dev/Optical0 2.5Gbyte 0%) Had anyone tried anything like this so far? I have only two possible vendors .. Alphatronix and possibly Trimarchi. All suggestions welcome! Of course, if anyone is interested in a summary I shall post it or mail it to them. -- Sharan Kalwani, CRI, 400 Town Center Dr. Suite 305, Dearborn MI 48126 Phone: (313) 956-2809 (313) 252-8086 (313) 271-0177 INTERNET: shan@hall.cray.com UUCP: ...!uunet!hall.cray.com!shan
