I bought a supermicro case that came with hot swappable sata drive trays. In order to get it to work correctly, a separate zero channel raid controller was necessary, but the finished product was pretty sweet. Raid 5 with a hot spare.

You configure the appropriate RAID array to allow for hot swapping in the even of a drive failure. It's a feature, not a thing. As Matt also mentioned you need the right hardware to accomodate this. Removable hard drive trays and a controller card that support hot swapping. -- - m0gely http://quake2.telestream.com/ Q2 | Q3A | Counter-strike _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
