#What do I need?
6 messages in this thread
I have a Netware 3.11 server on an Ethernet lan. Many of the users need
access to a multitude of media that comes in CD-ROM. I would like to
buy a device that could hold all of these disks and allow multiple users
to access this device simultaneously through the LAN. I am
not too familiar with all of the different storage devices (jukeboxes,
WORM, op drive's), so I would appreciate any suggestions on what is
the correct thing for me to purchase. My server does already have a
SCSI Panasonic Multifunction Optical Drive attached to an Adaptec 1540B
controller card. This is just a single drive used for archiving mainframe
reports. Any vendor suggestions would also be appreciated.
