[ale] Seagate 15k FC drives

[James Taylor]

I would say that would be a probable no.
You would need a hardware adapter that I would hazard cost a lot more than most computers you'd have around a house or small office.
These probably would only be useful to someone as spares or to expand existing, probably borderline obsolete FC storage.
I like Kinney's idea, though you'd need a pretty heft launcher to get any distance.

Can they be used in reg. computers? Sorry I haven't worked much with
FC Drives. If they can, I like a few as I can work on setting up maybe
iSCSI server to pay with, I don't have any drives at the moment to set
up.
