Default Re: SnapOs is no longer supported

But the hardware that doesn't support it is very OLD...

Guardian OS is where Adaptec is, and has been for a while...

This may be a "duh" for most of you, but it seems some need to be told... Adaptec is not about the "home user" for most of it's Snap Server products. Sure there is the 110 and 220, but the fact is, even those are aimed at SOHO. Most businesses are not really interested in Servers powered with Pentium 233 MHz or below and PC100 SDRAM and 100baseT or less. Adaptec knows this. DUH!

Yes, I use my Snap Servers at home, and so a lot (if not most) of the people on this forum. BUT! You have to realize that Adaptec and the Snap Servers are aimed at enterprise environments. It is that simple.

Reality sucks, don't it... But that (among other things, like speed) is why I moved to Guardian units.
