You're right.

Sometimes  there  is  a  condition that we must replace motherboard to
upgrade  our RAM such: no more slots, we use old fashioned Motherboard
etc.

Then,  if  you  look at the link I mentioned, the tweaking of IDE UDMA
drive  very useful and more cheap than change to SCSI drive. This will
help much for I/O bound application (like Mail Server etc).

Question  :  Mail Client is Compute Bound or I/O bound from your point
of view ?

>> Can you see the relation now ?

SL>     Nope.

How come ? So, what do you think/view about mailbox corrupt ?
