- I have seen ads for a product called GIGARAK, which supports up to 98
- drives in one rack in less than 5 sq ft of floor space.
-
- I have no further info other than the ad. The company in question is:
- Morton Management Inc., 12079 Tech Road, Silver Spring, MD 20904
- (301) 622-5600.
-
- Are there any users of this product who can inform us? The company
- advertises regularly in CDRom Professional magazine.
