but why???? each shuffle costs around 100 dollars

100 x 4 = $400 (not including the hub)

A Maxtor 200GB USB external drive costs $230.....so these people are idiots

oh....he borrowed them.....well there still idiots for buying the hub

i think it's a hilarious idea, i dont think it's practical, it's just interesting that you can do that.

okay... so they linked 4 ipodshuffles together to form one mass 4gig storage device?

wow. they where better off just buying a regular 20 or 40 gig ipod and using it as a mass storage device

btw, what good is an RAID array gonna do anyway
