>>with the low cost of disks these days, I use NT mirroring to protect against disk failure. If the disk fails I don't even go down, let alone lose data. i would think that nt would notify you that one of the mirrored drives had failed. i used to be a raid system enginner when disk arrays were just starting out. ncr made some nice controllers that could do raid levels 1, 3 or 5. >>Note this is no substitute for backup, which I mostly use to protect myself from my own stupidity i agree, but my streaming tape drive is too small(60mb) for today's drives. instead, i gamble but increase my odds by using only buying ibm scsi drives.
