Upgrade Sun Fire v65x to support USB External HD?
Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade a Sun Fire v65x to support USB external hard drive(s)? My take on this is the USB ports were designed to support keyboard and mouse funtionality. BIOS Version/Date is: Intel Corporation SWV25.86B.1191.P08.0310291543, 10/29/2003.
Does anyone know if this BIOS version would support simply adding a USB 2.0 card to a free PCI slot?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi,
Can anyone suggest me any USB Hard Disk Drive which I can connect to Sun Fire V890 and take backup at a quick speed. A test with SolidState USB Hard Drive for backup work was taking writing at 2GB per hour for a 75GB backup.
