For a small business, I would generally recommend using computers they would otherwise discard and set up two, replicated MySQL servers for a reliable database that won't stop if one computer or one disk drive fails. You could do the same thing with two older computers that still work reliably, setting up replicated NAS. After all, you want to protect against not just disk drive failure, but also computer failure. -- John DeCarlo, My Views Are My Own ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
