Guys
I'm up to 2 external Maxtors on firewire and a 80gb WD USB used on the go.
Between music and video, I ready for a 3rd firewire drive. But what i
really need is a lot of storage. Maybe I should get a desktop with a few
300gig drives and ethernet them. The notebook is adequate and I've come to
appreciate the 80 gig usb portable which is a virtual shared drive no matter
which notebook I take to the field.

Who's got a great solution?

If you require incredibly huge volumes of storage, why don't you just buy a
server stack and call it a day? Or you could buy some basic boxes and stuff
the hard drive bays with the largest drives the units can accommodate and
network the whole mess.
