I've heard nothing but good about these cards, but I have heard hardly anything about recovery and rebuild. I'm assuming you need to shut down, plug in the new drive, and go... How quick is the rebuild (subject to drive size of course)? Has anyone seen rebuild problems? Benny -- "As a general rule, don't solve puzzles that open portals to Hell." - Unknown
