Well Stars, heres the deal, If U think that the "BOOM" factor is limited to my RAID 0 vs your 1 TB then ur wrong.

ANY HD is subject to a "BOOM" factor and when that happens I don't give a rats ass wtf u are runing ALL info is GONE.

SO........ That's why they make 1-5TB back optional external HD to keep ur shit safe!


PLUS---------------- If U really wanna go techy then do a quad raid where u can mirror image a RAID 0 on a seperate set of Raptors OR any other comapatable pair of HD to have all ur goodies safe if u ever crash and burn...

LOL -- and u thot I was just another pretty face :P Not bad for an ol guy HUH ??


Cmon ppl I KNOW ur smarter than that :P
