   I used to use SCSI with OS/2 Warp 3.0 in the old days.  Even was using several   
   of the HP DAT tape drives (with auto-loaders) via SCSI back then.

   Depends on what you are pointing to the syslog server.  One of my work   
   firewalls set to informational - if pointed to the syslog server was using   
   5-6GB per day.     
      
   Windows can run syslog servers with no issues.  If I remember correctly, we   
   are using Kiwi for some syslogs and Solarwinds for others.
