For what it's worth, I'm running a 3Ware 6410 card (4 port IDE RAID-5
with three 60 GB 7200 drives) on our development server, and it works
flawlessly. One of the nice features is that it can support email
notification of array rebuilds and drive issues/failures, so it's
easy to keep on top of

In fact modern SCSI disks are a little bit faster (the 15000 rpm versions).
But they are much more expensive. We solved the problem with RAID-boxes
from EasyRAID. IDE disks input with hot plugging support and RAID 5 and
a SCSI connector. In the machine there's the corresponding SCSI controller

Hello All
We have about a dozen production machines running software RAID1 with
IDE drives. We have experience going back about year now and we have
had a number of raid drive failures in that time.
Good points:
- If a drive fails, the machine carries on running and you can sort
it out the p

to boot from the other disk, but if the disk partially fails then it'll

hi tim,
Is there a package out there that can monitor/test an ISP's connection
(using PPP) on a regular basis?
what exactly do you want to test? if a connection is available?

connection, kill it immediately, and keep a log of it.
i don't know a package.
