Hello "Thomas R. Shemanske" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, I bought Datafab MD2-FW-USB External 2.5 IDE HDD Enclosure today and successfully work in my debian notebook.
My question is-- is it possible to use 1394 HUB to connect some 1394 storage device and some Linux servers and make it a 1394-based NAS environment? Can two Linux servers mount the same 1394 storage device and access at the same time? On Wed, 06 Feb 2002 10:31:10 -0500 "Thomas R.
