They are expensive, but they're well worth having if you can scrape
together the bucks.
I think it'd be cheaper for me to find some DSSI drives. (Or add a
DSSI <-----> SCSI adapter in to the mix )
Well, trouble is, they're drying up fast.
Think I could make a VAX work with iSCSI? ;)
That's an idea!
Would be easier on a weekend due to my eyesight making me unable to
drive, so i'd need someone to drive me there. Although I have a few
friends a little ways from Pittsburgh who might be able to help in
some way. Me getting there directly is a bit challenging, both due to
my eyesight and possibly being the youngest here ;).
Understood. I generally don't differentiate much between weekdays and
weekends, so either is fine for me.
(You have no idea how hard it is to get this working in a VM ).
Oh yes I do. ;) I virtualized a gaggle of SCO OpenServer machines
for a customer about two years ago, using VMware. Oh man that was
a mess...VMware was the only virtualization platform that would
work, and even that took some doing. They're all still running,
though, but now on VERY different hardware. :-)
At least it's not Hyper-V I couldn't get anything to run in
Hyper-V save for windows. And not even NT 4!
Eeeeeek!
