Industry has moved again. Better get used to it. Nearline SAS is a replacement for SATA. It's a lower cost drive than SAS, with higher reliability than SATA. I have begun seeing vendors that sell only SAS and NearLine SAS. (Some dell servers.) SATA is not dead. But this will certainly change things up a bit. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
