Grrrr. ;) This one came out of an old sawmill in town a few years ago - I got a phone call saying that they had heard that there was "some old mainframe crap" getting scrapped at the sawmill and heard that I was one of those crazy collectors. !! WTF? Since when is an Alpha storage array "old", "mainframe", or "crap"? I hate stupid people. But sometimes their stupidity gets thinking people good, high-end hardware. By the time I got there, the drive array and some documentation was all that was left. It lied around my garage for a year or so, then spurred me into getting the DS10L to give it something to hook up to. Nice. The Alpha it was originally connected to probably went to a dealer for big bucks. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
