    Hello,
    I have been fighting a loosing battle. Maybe the 3rd time is a charm though.

    I want to repalce my aged AS2000 with a DS20 or something like that.
    I am running 4.0g and am stuck here because of the database we are running.

    inside the aS2000 I have 8 drives,
    I have a KZPSC-BA raid controller that has 4 9 GB drives on 1 channel. (raid
    5) 26 GB Total Storage
            and 4 JBOD drives

    I need more storage space and there are a few ADVFS sets that are running out
    of space.

    I have a TZ88 that is running off of a PCI controller and the operations is
    complaining about speed.
    I need to find out more about getting the stats etc

    Anyway I need ideas of how to go around getting this ancient server replaced.
