Re: holy ****!

Someone has a lot of time on their hands haha. Pretty cool to see that it actually works though. 150 fdd's would be a waste of money to do this though. I can see using 5 for the experiment, but 150 is overkill for something you can do already with better technology.

Waste of money :s just go down to your scrapyard and walk into the computer graveyard area or freecycle

While not totally useless (I can think of one application for it) this is interesting from a research standpoint, the fact it has been done at all is incredibly heart warming because it hasn't been done before who cares if it is useless.

according to the people in the comments it was done like 6 years ago? so is this an old article or someone taking credit for something done a long time ago?

still cool though lol

Not sure why any one would bother, but I do find that funny.

Re: holy ****!

Next step, RAID zip drives! or even better RAID flash drives. Now that might actually have utility. lol.

^ i was thinking raid flash drives once i read the thread also, that might actually be semi useful.
