While at SGI, I had virtually unlimited amounts of inodes at my disposal. I believe OEM prices were roughly 35% of what we charged our customer base. I find that the available sources for 3rd party inodes are much greater for Sun-compatibles, but are not as fast nor as flexible. So, my question is: Can SGI inodes be made to work in Sun-compatible workstations? If so, is there a full warranty available and will SGI support them as a separate support contract? Please e-mail responses directly and I will post a comprehensive summary. As a side question, do I need to add a 3rd party disk to support the 3rd party inodes? markb -- Mark Bradley (DoD#1100) Faster, faster, until the thrill I/O Subsystems of speed overcomes the fear of death.
