Will Webmasters have a need for it? - GoFuckYourself.com

logic00 · 03-04-2003, 09:53 AM

We are looking at a product that will let webmasters create Virtual Storage (Similar to the old X-drive) but will also give them the ability to FTP directly into the Box. Looking for feedback from WebHosting Companies as well as Webmasters. Basically the reason for this product would be so you don?t have to keep all the TGPs, movies, Content, Code on your computer at home/office but would rather keep them on our Hitachi Machines and be able to seamlessly move data between Storage and the actual Site. This will also give the Admin ability to assign different level of access for different users.

So what do you think?
If you have any more questions please post here or ICQ.

I don't see the use of it, you can transfer files from one server to another anyway. You will pay for the traffic of both servers though. Transfering 1 GB to another server would be 2 GB of traffic.

Actually you will only pay for one since this soft will not chage for transfers to and from Hitachi. So for example:

If you are at home with a slow connection (yes DSL and Cable is slow at times) you can transfer files seamlessly between or servers and not pay for double transfer. Also if you would like to give different type of access to different people you can not do that with FTP.

Also if you are saying no please do post a reason
