nope. you can also do striping or raid 0 if you want. striping needs a minimum of two disks without logging of course. > i suggest that you use duplexing para mas maganda yung performance.

But if you loose one disk, say bye bye to your data. > A word of caution, nasunugan na ako ng ide drives at the same time :) > di ko alam kung cheap yung parts or baka may mumu lang :) > > anyway for better performance and your money's worth, go with scsi. Few years ago yes. But now, With Ultra ATA 100 around, IDE drives can compete with low/medium sscsi drives. regards, --- Andre M.
