I really want firewire hard drive support for my blade so I can chain many drives off the blade. So, I began pinging people at Sun about Firewire (IEEE 1394) hard drive support on Solaris 8. Currently the only supported Firewire device is the Sun Visual Camera thingie. However, is the answer that I got back from a Sun contact was that Firewall Drive support was planned and would be in a later release of Solaris. However, there was no date for the release of this feature addition. geoffrey@deepest.
