Curiously the smart folks who do the job right are often also the ones who charge the least. Probably because they have fewer messes to clean up. The folks with the Brobdingnagian RAIDs never seem able to control costs. They need to stock all those duplicate controllers, drives, etc. and then scramble when the whole system is hosed. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
