[ NOTE: I don't have anything to do with seagate, beyond owning a few hawk and barracuda drive, I've just seen a few of their boxes. ] I believe that Seagate's runs Linux as well and has Raid 0, 1 and 5 support as well. At one point they also supported "network raid", meaning you gould get two of them and have them mirror data across a dedicated ethernet pipe. I haven't heard about the Linksys one. What's the model number? ----ranga To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
