I was wondering if I could hook up my 2 pcs with 2 scsi cards and have them access the same scsi hard drives. Is this possible?

Should be, technically, but it may be a bit flaky.

It can�t be done on a regular PC running Windows. This is used on bigger server-solutions. Check out the link above if you want to know more about it.

hmmm, ethernet is one choice but for recording of audio, and realtime video you'll take a small performance hit :::unless your runnin gigabit:::. As far as the dual machine-one scsi chain goes yep its very possible. WITH operating systems that allow you to lock/unlock drives for use. :::most of these, well okay all of them that I know of are *nix::: I know sun has some killer A/V apps out there, and that's probably your only choice if your using your pc for midi/synth. Maybe people should get together and push the open source community for some good proggy's for Linux?? Or even better, a good solid BSD app. Your best bet would be just to pick up another drive for the second machine and if you need to share files, use ethernet.
