> I have two Nova-t-500's in my backend, and they for the most part they work
well.  Just a warning, and I'm not sure if this is only specific to my setup
but I do occassionally (maybe once sometimes twice a month) have an issue
where a nova-t-500 card will lock up, and I need to power the backend off
(ie remove power to the machine) and restart and all is well.  A reboot will
not suffice.  I've never got to the bottom of this - and wonder if anyone
else has ever seen this issue?

Cheers,
Steve.
