"And, having just had my 6-month old 400GB backup disk die on me "
Wow, after all the work of ripping CD's to a hard disk, you trust the hard disk? I've learned this lesson a few times. Either install a Raid Array (mirrored hard drives), or maybe better, have a second drive where you copy all the ripped files. This 2nd drive can be stored in another location to insure against a common mode failure (power spike, fire, physical computer theft for eg) which causes loss of both your Raid drives. A 400GB drive can be bought for about 135$ I believe. Cheap insurance. -- chinablues ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chinablues's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7955 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29003 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
