To clarify - a limitation of using the MediaDocks is that each disk and also
the MediaDock SCSI interface have their own SCSI ID's which limits how many
other devices you can put on the available busses. The HUGE arrays use a
single SCSI ID. I wouldn't want to have them share the busses with the
MediaDocks - I'd prefer to put a couple of terabytes of HUGE on instead...
but... if you feel brave you could try to assign them an available ID and
see what happens :-)
I still think it's more cost effective to use them as alternatives to the
MediaDocks instead of supplements.

Hi Rich,
Yeah, but Aleks couldn't have them on the same bus as his MediaDock, could
he?

Tone :)
