With the old Drives I have had never problems. The newer drives, for example in my postgresql Server IC35L120AA are working in a 3Ware 3c7406-4 RAID-5 since more then 3 years without any problems. Two of my FileServers (3Ware too) using the 180 GByte HDDs. Now my new Serves are using WD800 on 3Ware RAID1 and RAID-5 Goten them for 50 Euros each. > Cheers, Martin Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)
