I believe the reason why we decided not to use raid was in case the raid array got corrupted. We would then lose all of our backups.. Where as if one disk dies, we only lose what was on that disk. There may have been another reason but I think that was the main reason. mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
