Unfortunately, no, and since I can't get it to boot, I can't reproduce it.

Darn. I already lost one hard disk, and this was to be its replacement. It

I'd like a separate physical form of media. Might a USB hard disk be what I'm
looking for? All four hard disks are currently being used for different
things, one is my boot disk, and I don't trust it for anything but that (it
generally works, but if I were to do anything really intensive-), then the
Linux disk, and then the two Windows disks are in a JBOD array.
