hi ya jon
yeah...i guess i was misled by the trade show (3ware) folks a few months
back..... just checked their page....hw raid0/1 only.... oh well...
-- good... still have room for the hw raid cards...
-- been thinking....
nowdays....80Gb IDE drives is about $300
5x 80Gb is a ton of "really cheap" disk storage...
400GB (sw raid5) for about $2,000
and with 8 drives.....its gets to be a nice chunk of storage
- and than i wanted to pull a disk to simulate a disk
failure and see what happens....( but am lazy too )
* does NOT need to be hot swapp...
- i like to know what died and what caused the failure
before putting in the next disk/array to replaced the dead one
* i dont like mirroring either... cause if ya erase foo from "md0"
than yu also removed foo from "md1"...
thanx
