There's 4 websites on the existing one and I barely shift 2gb per month in
page hits...last week I found out that my ISP doesn't bitch until I start
shifting a gig a day so I think I'm fine :)
I was surprised to find that the UW disk with correct cable, converter and
active terminator upset the SCSI bus so I'm temporarily using an old HP
Surestore drive that I rescued from an old server at Mrs Witchy's school.
2gb but it's NOISY! Anyone in the UK got a spare RZ29B they don't want any
more? :)
Installing VMS 7.3 as I type......though I've been spoilt by the fast
CD-ROMs in ES40s and the like so installing from an RRD42 is painful to say
the least! Having said that I've got an old SCSI Yamaha CDRW that still
reads but won't write so I might try putting that in my external CD
enclosure......
Cheers
