I'm looking for war stories concerning Century Data Systems disk drives, specifically Model 21000 (1.006GB), Model 21200 (1.2GB), and Model 21500 (1.5GB). One of my disk vendors is suggesting these drives for my Sun 3/280 server. I have a data sheet that shows them as 2.458MB/sec transfer rate drives, which suits my needs. He's also suggesting the Xylogics 752 controller for them. Anyone have these drives at your site, especially on a Sun? Had any problems with them? Do you boot from them? Are they the disks to fall in love with? Email responses to me, please. Many thanks for any assistance. ..Celeste Stokely Coherent Thought Inc.
