El cheapo IDE/PCI Suns (Ultra 5 and co.) do. But then the author of the article perhaps hasn't come across , "sync", "reset".:)
Yup, I will only use Sun gear for my off-site backup NS/MX machines. They are rock solid, regardless of age. The only time they reboot is from power problems beyond UPS/generator capability to deal with.
