Very useful - thanks. Looks like I'll have to try harder with sw raid, as I don't think it's worth spending £300 to make the disks go faster, and this box has only 32-bit PCI slots so I can't fit a modern card (unless you know different). -- Rgds Peter. ________________________________________________ Message sent using UebiMiau 2.7.2 -- [email protected] mailing list
