    Default USB, firewire disks on Sun?


    hi,

    what brands of USB or firewire disks can I put on a Sun?
    Blade 1000, 2000 class machines. I know not all the brands
    work.

    No firewire disks work. USB Mass Storage standard compliant devices
    should work. [url]http://www.sun.com/io_technologies/ihvindex.html[/url] has info
    on tested/certified/supported products.
