If you just want to increase HD capacity, can't you just stick and IDE drive in the machine aswell?
I wouldn't replace SCSI with IDE if there was any important data invloved, let's face it IDE drives are just not the same quality as SCSI disks and they DO fail quite a lot. My advice would be to keep the important stuff as is, and add an IDE drive for the less important data, but BACK IT UP REGULARLY. -----Original Message----- From: Danna D. Swain [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 July 2003 18:24 To: SQL Subject: advice I am currently running SQL Server 2000 and ColdFusion MX on a DELL server with Windows 2000 Server, Raid Controller with 10,000 RPM SCSI hard drives. We are considering switching to 7200 RPM IDE hardrives and the use of mirroring to replace the raid controller...Is there any references that you can share that would enlighten me on the pros and cons of both. Thanks. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=6 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=6 Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm
