If this is to make Videl's system drive 2x160GB RAID1, then the
identical brand and model would be ideal.
IMHO Videl does not need the extra disk

Vince,
Is their a particular drive you have in mind, or just any 160GB disk.

This was my motivation in buying a larger drive. If installed now, it

Don't be sad, I was just learning that the RAID is in-fact
software-based and all 160 gigs will be usable. The more hard-drives,
the merrier.
But back to the tech stuff. I just had a thought about videl but

Unfortunately this means that Videl will still be limited in
performance
to the 2MB cache of the smaller disk. While the 60GB system drive
portion can be made redundant across bot
