To be honest, it's better than nothing - but storage is so cheap now, why not go the whole way and get redundancy on the hardware (not just the data). |

For sure... I set this system up before I got into production so it wasnt as much of a concern then... I'm fairly certain that these WD drives outlived their 2 year warranty by a year or so.
Thats the plan though.. I'm going to setup a RAID 5 today so I have not only a performance boost but redundancy. This way if any hardware fails all I have to do is swap a new drive in.
stupid me... |

| If it that bad, you could load up Vista on a new drive, and then put the bad drive in as 2nd data drive and see if you can restore something off of it. |

This would not work. |

You might be able to use File Monger. It has raid support, dunno how extensive it will work though for an array (based on the way data is striped across too). I know it works wonders on hard drives that have been formatted, can't access, everything.
Best Bet. |

| Please, for the love of god, especially if you're doing creative work, make backups. RAID is not a substitute, not even "real" RAID 1/5 that's actually redundant. |

| I say we build a 10TB server tower and move it between our machines for weekly backups.... LOL |

Yea - I looked into it and got an outrageous quote like that as well. As good as the track was, not sure that the steep pricetag would be worth it... :(
Thanks though! |
I know a place that will do it for hmmm 500-600...would that work for you? I have gone many times to them....and I see you figured it out! well good that is great to hear! but next time RAID 1 or 5, I am doing 5 at the moment. |
