Terabyte Storage Solutions?

Posted by Cliff on from the large-arrays-of-fat-disks dept.

DeMechman asks: "As many on Slashdot may know, storage is one thing which you can never have enough of. Given the current situation with CD/DVD rot (Personally I can attest to a 10% attrition rate) hard drives in a RAID configuration seem to be a better and more economical solution. If you own more than fifty CD/DVDs, it can be a daunting task to find a file. I am wondering if anyone has found a hardware solution that can inexpensively be set up to handle 10 or more 250GB HDDs in a RAID configuration. Primarily, has any case manufacturer tackled this niche market yet?"

    "I am wondering if anyone has found a hardware solution that can inexpensively be set up to handle 10 or more 250GB HDDs in a RAID configuration." clear out some of the porno...good god, if you need that much storage on a personal setup, and it's not research-type data, you are pathetic.

    I'd love to see George W. Bush fired too, but what does this have to do with the topic at hand?
