I need to go to something permanent & redundant when I can afford it though I may have to consider a backup solution 1st since availability is second to not having all may data go *poof*. Lost a over 150GB due to XP, 1394, & encryption when the dreaded M$ Delayed Write Failure corrupted my external Drivecrypt & Truecrypt volumes a few months ago. No way to recover them unlike unencrypted data can be, no complete/recent backups. DWF is still an issue it seems, so I will not be trusting my encrypted stuff to external 1394 under XP anymore. Been trying for a year (like many other people, google it) to figure out why it happens. Just don't have the $$$ to try combo's of enclosure chipsets & FW cards to solve the problem. Right now I got the Dell i8200 laptop's FW & 2 Oxford 911 chipset enclosures the both do random DWF's every so often. Neil Davidson wrote: > I need to build a 1TB+ array sometime soon.
