Hooking up many different external HDs simultaneously
- by cbizz
I need a large amount of external storage for an upcoming project. I'm planning on purchasing 10 2TB external drives. I need them all hooked up to a single machine at the same time. What issues will I run into?
I plan on using 2 power strips and having them all externally powered from the wall. I will use a USB hub to plug in all the drives. I need drive access time to be as fast as possible.
I am using Ubuntu Linux(64 bit). Will I be able to mount 10 drives?
