Dear Friends,

I have a following problem:

our supplier of data sent us data on IDE harddisk in USB 2.0
enclosure. The disk has NTFS file system. We are almost MS Windows
free site. But the vendor is almost MS Windows only site.
I have new V440 with Solaris 9 12/03 which has 4 USB 2.0 ports.
I found on SunSolve that Solaris can "talk" with USB 2.0 Storage
devices. But the problem is NTFS. I found only support
for FAT32 (pcfs). Nothing about NTFS and Solaris Sparc.
Is there any way to read data (from NTFS file system) directly on my
V440 ? Or should I look for laptop with USB 2.0 ? Any other solutions?

Kind regards,

GB
