For archive purposes is there a simple way for me to make a
bit-for-bit copy retail DVDs I've purchased?
Assume that I've got the right sort of DVD drive, I guess something

Hi,
I've got a 3-disk 250GB RAID-1 that I use for short term, on the
machine backups. It's normally not mounted unless I'm doing a quick
save. Unfortunately it's a bit too small these days so I'm therefore
going to convert it to a 3-disk RAID-5 which will double it's size.
I'm pretty sure I'

when the system is setup correctly if I plug in her iPod I should see
