That got me thinking about the USP architecture and exactly how the external storage can be presented. I must dig my manuals out and check something...

Not to mention my bug bear about their impossible attachment claims.<br/><br/>$60K for a disk-less box without license certainly isn't cheap, when compare with SVC for example - which of course does the same thing for a lot less - without the limits on external storage.
