Get it. Lack of HDs makes it worrysome. What HDs does it take?

I don't know the specs on that unit, but for that price, do it. They are
essentially an nfs-only NAS-device which runs Solaris, IIRC. Never worked
with them hands-on. The guys that founded Auspex went on to found NetApp,
if that means anything.
