doh! I hadn't thought of that. Thanks. Software it is! I have an existing setup that uses four 120G drives in software RAID 5 under windows 2000, and I learned that it's best to have exactly the same kind of drives. Mixing WD and Seagate caused problems. Is that a RAID 5 idiosyncrasy or a windows thing? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
