Hello all,
One of the dreaded Maxtor SATA drives in my RAID5 failed, after just 3 months of light use. Anyhow I neither have the disk capacity nor the money to buy it to make a backup. To make sure I do it correctly, could you folks please double-check my intended course of action? I would really appreciate that.

Gerd,

If you've got a credit card you can get Maxtor to send out a replacement without having to pull the failed drive.

I've done this several times :) (b****y Maxtor drives!)

Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try. Their website's RMA stuff doesn't seem to work (application unavailable bla bla), so I guess I'll cll them Monday... Probably be on hold for half a day :-(
