Add support for USB array devices. w Experimental support as unRAID array drives

[WeeboTech]

With USB 3.0, drives run close to normal SATA speed.

USB array boxes allow a cost effective method to add storage or do pre-clears without the eSATA hassle. (i.e. controller cables, port multipliers)

 

I believe all that is required is some kernel settings to scan all LUNS on scsi devices.

 

root@unRAID:/usr/src/linux-3.9.11p-unRAID# grep -i LUN .config

# CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set

# CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN is not set

 

Once this is done, perhaps we can add an experimental /unsupported feature to allow these devices to be added as array devices.

Could be good for cache/BTRFS or apps drives.

I would be interested too.
