I'm still baffled why no one on this list that I'm aware of uses a simple
RAID 1 config--it would just about obviate all of the (hardware) failure
problems I read about. What's wrong with RAID 1? Why not use it?
Because Windows requires a high cost 'server' to be able to use Raid.
The cheap way is to get a Promise card, which I installed for a friend
that keeps losing disks a week ago. Raid doesn't protect you against
a 'finger opps'...
Oh, and I have a Raid1+0 system.
