Re: [microsound] Network Attached Storage

use a few of these cheap ones:

throw a good multichannel controller (or multiple single channel cards.)
in a linux box.  ether stitch them together w/ lvm or make a raid of
them w/ the controller card if it supports it (interesting benefits w/
that to) or both.

export w/ nfs or smb and there's a good, cheap, dense nas.

happy solstice-oriented holiday of your preference!
