Thank you Brian,
It now seems that we do/approve of online "storage."
I will search and investigate this. I do know that many of this Lists' members
have learned/done this. I salute this! You folks may be the true pioneers
in this
high-speed data stream.
Off-LAN storage is not a critical topic ATM. I do get the "future plans" idea.
I can admit that speeds/abilities/capabilities have gotten the best of me.
OK.
I have decided that I have ONE bad drive in the RAID. I still believe that
my Adaptec ?3200S is still fully operational. But, I have other
back-channel conversation working on this one!!!!
Yes Greg, I do NOT completely comprehend a RAID. Thought I did.
But, ATM, I do not.
Thank you, Brian.

I use JungleDisk and Amazon S3 for my personal offsite backup. I know it's
not completely bulletproof, but for a couple bucks a month it's well worth
it for the 10 GB of data I really, really care about.
