I've seen that, but was told by an electrical engineer on a local LUG list
that this would not work unless I was using a really high-end (i.e. $1500)
firewire enclosure that understood multi-host connections.

Are you using such a setup, or a plain old firewire enclosure with two ports?


I have a firewire enclosure I got from http://www.cooldrives.com but you need to 
make sure it is using the Oxford 911 chipset. They upgraded me to the INITIO which
would not work. I think I spent < $500 for all(enclosure,2 firewire cards and 2 hard drives).
