Hi All
I have a PM G5 2.7 DUAL and I'm installing a Jive 5 unit and a Seritek card
to allow 5 2TB drives internally.
I need some expert advise on how and what type of Raid system I need to
store and quickly access a large music and movie library? At the moment I have
it stored on 3 machines

There is a parity bit so that if one drive fails, you still can
recover the data by replacing the failed drive. Slower than RAID 0,
but your data is secure.

you need to have to raid cards and have it set up so that for a primary and
secondary sort of thing where if one drops out the other card takes over and
you can then replace the failed card. After that you need to resync. It
takes fancy software but we used to do it all the time on Risc 6k boxes.
