I'd go for the slightly more expensive version with 8 meg cache, get a
donnor (GBY, how's your boss doing?) to get us 3 such disks to be
installed in a RAID-5 configuration.

however, I would have to insist of having an overhaul in such a case,
upgrade the entire system while we are at it, use Debian if possible,
and EVMS and such professional tools to manage the space (so we can
dynamicly allocate hard limits to certain mirrors, and an overflow in
RedHat doesn't cause Debian to stop mirroring :)

other than that, since the Zope look is getting old (and people gave up
on it ever being truely Hebrew) I propose we drop the zope and move to
consolidate under PHPBB's new Hebrew support and "blog" look hacks. They
make you wonder if the *nuke family has any right to continue living at
all.

but first thing's first: who can talk their employer to donate some
disks for the cause? I'm going to talk to mine tomorrow. 3 disks of 120
(can't do 4, the CDrom is IDE) are circa $650, at a high estimate, and
it's tax deductable (they will get a propper reciept for a change).
