True but the production would ramp up to meet the demand and we all would win, Id finally get cheep scsi drives I could afford to put in this raid bay gathering dust in my machine.
On all the Hard drives I can afford, I see
a lage market on ebay for these if this auctually gets approved and non compliant drives start becoming scarse. Of course there is always SCSI, maybe this is the big event needed to drive demand up and scsi prices down.
It may be downtime but it is much less then if you
had to rebbot and wait for the BIOS, hardware detection etc. If you can afford a cluster or another HA solution this is pur magic. Think a
single server that has to have a new kernel for whatever reason, this could allow it to be back up in 10 seconds instead of 1 to 3 minutes (Ive seen
machines slow on boot beacuse of slow scsi detection etc)
