50 KW Petabyte Storage solution.

The Internet Archive has received delivery of a 600 system, 2500 drive storage system based on Via mini-ITX motherboards running Debian or Fedora Linux.

Now, if they can only port Searchlight to this thing so they can FIND what I’m looking for on it…….

   Google not good enough for you? 😉

   That is a quite a system. Gonna make for some interesting search trees.

   Hey, I didn’t order/install it. If I had the money, though…..”Daddy, can we download the Internet again tonight?” “Not tonight, dear, I gotta get to Wal Mart for some more DVD-Rs to archive it on first.” Gee, what kind of pipe do they have to download all that stuff, anyway? A T-1000? (Arnold’s voice in the background–“I’ll be back.”)
