I have never liked raid 5 but can still see its use. And while you are 100%
correct I have the statement that raid is not a back up it is a good
feature for performance needs and overall uptime so you can keep running in
case of single disk failure. Which I have dealt with.

Agreed - I have a separate nas I rsync important data regularly with
between my laptop as I often work away from home, here I just use the
nas. Problem is I don't always have my laptop on at home, and sometimes
goes weeks without replication.
I run the ssd's in raid1 as a) i want *some* disk-

I've been using software raid1 (md) for a while now for my desktops and
laptops work and home, and since my adventures in ati gpu land, I've
twice now had video software/hardware cause my software raid to fail
ugly, but
I think of RAID 5 :-)

Lesser known fact, but I stopped buying Western Digital drives because
they purposely began removing firmware function to disable tler,
purposly pushing people to buy their 2x cost "enterprise" drives to
*support* raid. It turned into a inet snafu at one point from backlash
as they ripped it o
Thanks to all who responded. Sounds like no problem.
Thanks again,

Working with dells at work. Including the 620 any hdd will do. The
motherboard/case combination however is all sorts of proprietary.
But the 620 took Ubuntu 12.04 with gnome 3 like a champ.

I'm considering buying a Dell desktop (Inspiron 620), but a few
years ago I was warned off them because Dell did something
different to their disks so that you had to buy
replacement/additional disks only from Dell. Any chance that it's
still true?
