Bernoulli disks
For over five years, we have been archiving our data (acquired from our B-D flow
cytometers using Lysis II) on 20-MB Bernoulli disks using Bering Drives. This
system has worked very well for our purposes, but now we have learned that
Iomega will no longer supply the disks! To get around this, we are considering
various hardware changes, but upgrading 8 HP workstations could run into alot of
$$$. And gut our feeling is that "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" We're recycling
old disks from past years, but we'll need more disks than we have on hand before
the end of this year. So we need to find another source for the 20-MB Bernoulli
disks. Does anyone know where we can get some? Our current usage is about 200
MB of data per month: Does anyone have a relatively inexpensive recommendations
for a new data storage system?
