- John and Frank,

- I don't believe there is anything in the VINES software that permits a file
- service to span logical drives. You're pretty much dependent on the hardware
- to do that. I'm looking into some RAID Arrays from Megadrive systems. They
- clain to support upwards of 490 GB of online storage. I currently use one of
- their external chassis with 1GB removable drives. It's a wonderful system
- which plugs right into the external connector of the Adaptec 1740's we have
- in our Systempro's (also run an Exabyte 8200 off of the internal connector).
