Wow, all those drives and it still doesn't even add up to less than 8 MB total storage.  We've certainly come a long way since the 1541.

The combined loading time of those drives is probably measured in weeks :)

I once made a RAID with 7 floppy drives on a b3 ibook.

It was fantastic watching the drive lights as you'd read/write.
