| | Langa Letter: A Complete Terabyte File Server For About $500 - News by InformationWeek (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17) |
 | | Mar 27, 2006 12:00 AM A short while ago, I received a challenge from a reader who didn't believe me when I said in print that it was possible to put together a brand-new terabyte (1,000 Gbytes) file server for around $500. |
 | | The heart of my terabyte server is a modest array of high-capacity drives. |
 | | In assembling that system, I realized that because large, single hard drives are more or less standard in many new PCs, most users have never had to deal with the details of drive installation, initialization, and configuration, either for adding multiple drives to a system or for swapping drives. |
