Raccoon and Neptune upgrades

Raccoon.sb.fsu.edu

Figure1 Data Processing Computer Raccoon.sb.fsu.edu (KLB 410A)

Raccoon and Neptune the main data processing and archiving computers have now additional storage capacity. We have added a Seagate 34 GB SCSI hard disk to each of them. We have added a Belkin USB2 + IEEE1394 comb PCI cards so that external FireWire drives can now be connected either through FireWire or USB2 connection. We have added a DAT72 (DDS5) internal tape drive. With these additions we support all the five generations of DDS tapes (DDS, DDS2, DDS3, DDS4 and DAT72). The current status is displayed below:
