ATA Cascade + Distance...

[ATA Cascade Project]

There have ben request for colated ATA Boxes.
There is a vender that has a package the will allow 30 feet between
the system and the storage array.  The details of this are limited do to
heavy NDA's; however, the vender has a very strong interrest in Linux.

So the answer is yes for the external high-speed drive arrays.

This is not a SCSI-2-ATA and back solution.

This is ATA-2-ATA exclusive, and will most likely deploy "Cascade" native.
