Exactly, why do people ask when they have a Google search bar right there ?

Yes, we all have doubts. I, for one, think it is a scam. Verizon et al will charge you to get your "own" data once you exceed your "cap". And one well placed terrorist act will erase any data center anywhere. Back up and hold your data. Do not rely on the cloud.

One fire will wipe out your house, your computer, your backup drive and your backup DVDs.

If a a data center is well run, they will be replicating everything offsite, possibly even in more than one location.

Does this make Apple peta-philes? ;-)

Isilon Servers and Macs

Funny...I found this thread looking for technical help because my Mac is having issues writing to an Isilon server.

Anyone having similar issues with v 10.8.2 saving to an Isilon server?

Cannot even image that number...

I don't think any storage will fit 12PB at the moment.

I wish i had that size external drive i wouldn't even know what to do with..
