Hi and thanks for your hints. I'll buy 4 disks 36 GB each - this is the maximum amount of free slots in a FSC TX150. Klaus advises to use a PCI RAID controller (Adaptec) whilst my dealer says, the on board controller does well. I'd rather trust Klaus herein - but further opinions are welcome. Can I run 4 disks in a RAID-5 Array? How much space I get if I have 36GB disks? Thanks for your advice Regards Ralf
