Hi folks, I saw the web pages on netapps home pages about using a netapp for news. Any more recent experiences? What kind of configuration are you using?

Almost no readers so far (I've counted 50). We expect this configuration to handle several hundred readers. Standard Seagate (Hawk) disks. F330 mostly because of better expandability than the F220.

We're using an F330 as as news/overview spool, feeding it from a 167 Mhz Axil Ultrasparc over a dedicated 100 Mbps Ethernet. The news software is inn-1.5.1. It's working just beautifully so far. Neither the NetApp nor the Axil are breathing hard. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug(a)nethelp.no
