Same time as Monday. I just had a major drive failure in my RAID array, so files were lost, and I have to rebuild the array and get my system back up and running. It is going to take a few days, hence the delay.

Sorry for the wait guys, but I should be back up to speed in a few days.

That may be a possiblity, but right now my drive (combined) runs at 15000 RPM......

At any rate, I am 50 percent up right now. Should be back 100 percent by tommorrow, or at least close to it. I did not lose as much this time due to backups.

Now THAT would help.......8mb cache right now, one of the reasons the RAID fails.......overflow and bit errors. A bigger cache would solve that problem. Wish there was some way to buffer the drives.

I have a single 7200 rpm drive. I wonder if maxtor has anything faster. I don't want to change brands, maxtor has never failed me so I will stay.

The meeting will be from about 12 noon Eastern to end sometime between 6 PM and Midnight, depending on who comes and what is needed. That should give plenty of time for people that need to come to show up.

True most users cant tell the difference in speed at all. Its a matter of milliseconds.

30 gig last time i checked, and i theyre designed for RAID.

and the reason why ppl want high hdd spin speeds is so they can get quicker access times, so lower load times etc
