Greg, Actually not only do I have one, everybody I know has one. I know of at least 12 different places that are running them. Maybe we're not talking about the same drive. Seagate Elite-9 ST410800N? If so they've been shipping for a while now. All of the local military installations have multiple ones connected together. The oldest one I know of has been running for almost 5 months at NASA. I just called to confirm that they had the same drive. Extremely solid drives. We're getting another one installed in a new workstation that's being delivered next week. $4500 pre-formatted to 9Gig (2 4.5 Meg partitions) in an External Case. I also know of a person who had one swapped out overnight due to a shipping damage problem, but I'm not sure if he got the replacement from Seagate or the vendor. I can give you the names of at least 4 vendors who have them in stock with overnight shipping. If that's an option for you. As to the NFS problem, I think alot of it is just a lack of time to page through the 9 manuals. 🙂 I have it up and running and I have a SGI server communicating with it, but I'm only FTP'ing the data back and forth at the moment. It's my understanding that the PC's can only serve as clients and there's not a way to pull up file directories from the PC on the workstation. Is this correct? Paul
