Can I access SATA disks via iSCSI? The intutive answer seems no, since
iSCSI is using scsi pdus.
But then again I see vendors selling enclosures full with SATA drives

I had used a Maxtor Onetouch II to back up files. To use it I just
pluged it in. The system recognized it and all was well.

Dear,
We have a problem with 2 servers running Solaris 10 and Netbackup.
When we try to backup our client we always get errorstatus 24 after

I have recently been hired by my employer and  have been tasked with
creating a backup strategy. We have a server that currently has less
than 80 Gigs of drive space on it, and less than half of that is

I'm sure the second will go sooner or later, too.
I often would rather not power off at night, but would like to run 24/7
for days at a time so backups, scans, etc. can take place while I sleep.

I have used this setup many times with no problem. Ghost 2003 Boot disc
is placed in an external floppy A: drive on a USB port.  A 250GB drive

In windows XP / in the windows Task Manager there is a window that says "PF
usage" is that referencing your RAM usage or something else? I wanted to know
