insistead to go for planning TSM solution. I assume the following

proposed any thing extra. I also would like to know, whether or not

Jeff,

All the IBM equipment checks out fine.

However, I could not find out a great deal on Exadrive. They appear to be a
small
private company, and, you don't have to supply much in the way of
financials
if your a closely held company.
