I've been using Quantums in everything I built in the last year or so. They have been running 100%. They seem to run a good deal cooler then other manufactures in the same class (IE an Atlas runs much cooler the a Seagate 'Cuda ) The other reason I've been using Quantum is the Warranty turn around. When my 2G 'Cuda died on me it was about 3 weeks before I got a new drive back from Seagate. Quantum has something like a 2 day turn. >We want reliability first. Then cost second. Get a DPT HBA and run RAID 6 (0+1). Get 6 2G Fireball ST drives. Nominal capacity is 6GB, super redundant, and will blow the doors of a 10,000RPM cheetah. This is the extreme...some simplier RAID solutions should also work well for you. Gimme a call if you need someone to build it (a plug never hurts, right : >) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.psychosis.com/emc/ Elite MicroComputers 908-541-4214 http://www.psychosis.com/linux-router/ Linux Router Project -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
