NeWare 6.5 iSCSI Host by
Robert Wessel
Has anyone had any experience with the iSCSI server/host in NetWare
6.5? We just migrated one of our older servers to a shiny new NW6.5
box. The iSCSI support was not a reason for the migration, but there
it is, and I'm looking at a lite-SAN application.

Storing documents/images on databases by
Gareth Williams
Any opinions out there of the suitability of Oracle (or any other DBMS)
for storing multiple Terabytes of images/documents in an EDM scenario?

need rapid access for large volumes of archived documents, so opticals
may not be...

Cheapest PCI Host Adapter to Dell 160/320 GB PowerVault 110T SDLT by
Stuart
Hi
I need to connect a Dell poweredge SDLT LVD drive (pretty sure its
just branded) to my home network - problem is, none of the home PC's
have a PCI-X bus, so the Adaptec 39160 I borrowed isn't going to work
....
e.g. will the Adaptec 29160 (Ultra 160) work? Is there anything
cheaper than this?
