I took the fibre channel cards out and put SATA cards in, I have 4 SATA drives where the CDROM drive was and I have an external SATA JBOD case with 8x2TB SATA drives. I had planned on making the 4 sata drives that are in my CDROM drive area my Framstore (It does something like 200+ MB/s r/w, and the 8 disks on the jbob a very very fast workspace/scratch drive with a backup of all my stuff(perhaps even perhaps link /usr to it - but I just haven't gotten around to it). Too many other interesting things to do with these machines taking up all my time
A smaller tablet it will be then.
Your idea of going with SATA cards is the better option, but I will go with the fibre channel array, just for the sake of keeping the system period specific. (I know it's crazy though!)
Thanks for the good advice, I really appreciate it!
