    Hi I’m a new poster, and have the following questions so may some of you can give me a clue?

    I have 2 AJA I/O finalcut pro systems (Powermac G5 DP 2.5GbRam, OSX 10.4.1) in one of them I have a SATA 1Tb Internal Raid via Swifftdata 200 that give me 150Mb/sec aprox.

    I need to share this 2 systems, so both can use the same raid at the same time. I know the Xserve and Xraid, but unfortunately I can afford it,

    So I just bought 2 fiber channel cards to plug in each computer.

    My question is, (like in a normal Ethernet)

    1). I can plug in on into the other with some cable ?
    2). Did I need a hub, what kind or specs ?
    3) Did I need any software, what kind?

    Thanks in advance.
