The term is RAIT. I've never seen it either, but knowledge of the term was on a certification test many years ago.
Fascinating. I've never heard the term before so I went googling. Apparently, it can produce some stunning performance figures:
"Data General is selling the CLARiiON Tape Array Subsystem comprising between five and seven 4mm DAT tape drives. Data can be recorded in RAID-like striping redundancy, mirrored, or in conventional DAT layout. This unit can provide up to 30GB of unattended contiguous storage. The tape drives can record at sustained rates of 183 - 732 KB/second each but customers should expect sustained backup at around 1 megabyte/second of compressed data after accounting for host overheads."
Cheers, Dave

I detect a smirk ... dunno if there's a character string for that ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
